Pokémon Go Launches Wayfarer Challenge in Chile and India for Nominating PokéStops and Gyms
Niantic has exciting news for Pokémon Go trainers in Chile and India with the launch of the Wayfarer Challenge. This event offers a unique opportunity to influence your local gaming environment while earning exclusive rewards. By participating in the review and approval of Wayspot nominations via the Niantic Wayfarer platform, you can contribute to the creation of new PokéStops and Gyms in your area, enhancing the Pokémon Go experience for everyone.
The Wayfarer Challenge will run from March 7th to 9th in Chile, and from March 10th to 12th in India. During these dates, you have the chance to nominate real-world locations like landmarks, sculptures, and street art to become part of the Pokémon Go map.
As you review nominations, you'll help the community reach milestone goals. Achieving 5,000 resolved nominations will reward all participants with 20 Ultra Balls, a Star Piece, an Incense, and a Poffin. If the community pushes further to 10,000 approvals, the rewards escalate to 25 Ultra Balls, two Star Pieces, two Incense, two Poffins, and a Lucky Egg.
To participate, you must be at least level 37 in Pokémon Go and have a Niantic Wayfarer account. If you're new to Wayfarer, you'll need to complete the Wayfarer Orientation before you start reviewing nominations. Additionally, you need to have recently played in Chile or India or set your Wayfarer Hometown or Bonus Location to one of these countries. To be eligible for rewards, you must review at least 50 nominations, and at least one milestone must be met.
Alongside the Wayfarer Challenge, the PokéStop Challenge will also take place from March 9th to 12th, exclusively in Chile and India. During this event, you'll earn 3x XP for your first visit to new PokéStops, 3x Stardust from opening Gifts, and see increased spawns of Kecleon. Event Field Research tasks will offer encounters with Eevee, and Timed Research will provide opportunities to catch other Pokémon.
