The creators of Pokémon GO are seeking even more attention from players. And they know how to achieve it: offering new rewards in a new global event Of course, this time without server crashes or game crashes. It is enough to capture as many Pokémon as possible in just one week to unlock all kinds of prizes. Highlighting, among them, those geographically isolated Pokémon such as Farfetch”™d and Kangaskhan.
Pokémon GO Travel: New Global Event
From Niantic they pose a new challenge to Pokémon GO players. From today, November 20, and until the next 27, which will coincide with the closing of the local event Pokémon GO Safari Zone in Japan, there is a challenge underway. It's all about catching no less than 3 billion Pokémon around the world An event in which everyone can participate. And it is not necessary to register anywhere. You just have to go out to capture Pokémon. The more the merrier.
The sole purpose of this challenge is to demonstrate the power of the Pokémon GO community of players. To liven it up and get more attraction, the event will also show the journey of several youtubers through Japan. IHasCupquake, Coisa de Nerd, and Rachel Quirico have been chosen to show different aspects of Japanese culture and play Pokémon GO throughout this week.
The awards
And here comes the most interesting part of this whole global challenge. And it is that Pokémon GO players can benefit from different rewards depending on whether or not the challenge is met You just have to look at the number of catches worldwide to know what kind of rewards can be acquired. There are three: bronze, silver and gold. And these are the possible items and benefits they grant.
- Bronze: If 500 million captures are exceeded during the seven days of the event, players will receive a 2X bonus in experience . The effectiveness of the baits will also be extended up to 6 hours. In addition, there will be more Pokémon than usual throughout the world.
- Silver: If 1.5 billion catches are exceeded, Pokémon GO players will have access to all the benefits of the reward of bronze.But, in addition, there will be a 2X bonus in stardust. Plus, even more Pokémon will appear around the world.
- Gold: This is where the most important rewards reside. They are unlocked if the challenge of 3 billion captures is reached globally. Contains all the benefits of the bronze and silver awards. However, the most interesting thing is that exclusive regional Pokémon will also appear throughout the entire planet. We are talking about Farfetch”™d, which will become available for only 48 hours worldwide And also from Kangaskhan, although in its case only for East Asia .
When will the trainer fights arrive?
However, the most interesting thing is that the latest rumors speak of advances in some new functions that could be shown soon.Some youtubers would be in Japan attending to new features and demos of what Niantic is preparing. And everything indicates that it would be the fights between coaches Something that, of course, is not confirmed.
Much more concrete and realistic would be the arrival of the third generation of Pokémon to the mobile title. Something that would also cheer up hardcore fans. However, Pokémon GO should find ways to attract more players. And it is that specializing with the strong following of the Pokémon franchise would only have an impact on their income
