Over the next few months, Pokemon Go will be hosting a number of events taking place around the world in celebration of the games one year anniversary. The main event is Pokémon GO Fest (Saturday, July 22) that is taking place in Chicago.
The event already seems to be sold out, because that is the sort of world we live in. But just because you can’t make it to Chicago doesn’t mean you can take part in the fun. Pokémon GO Trainers everywhere can participate in a global challenge along with Trainers at the event to unlock special rewards worldwide.
During the day, there will be three main Challenge Windows in which Trainers everywhere will work alongside those in Chicago to unlock global rewards. During the Challenge Windows, Trainers in Grant Park will attempt to unlock perks for Pokémon GO players around the world by catching certain types of Pokémon.
Each Pokémon- type will be tied to a different perk, so Trainers at the park will need to carefully choose which Pokémon they catch. Will those in attendance try to catch Electric-type Pokémon to reduce the distance required to hatch Eggs, or Grass-type Pokémon to increase Stardust bonuses, or other Pokémon- types to secure a variety of other bonuses? Join in the action and find out.
Trainers outside of Chicago will try to catch as many Pokémon as possible during the Challenge Windows to extend the duration of the bonuses unlocked by those attending the event. If Trainers around the world catch enough Pokémon, a mystery challenge will be unveiled in Grant Park that, once completed, will unlock an extra-special bonus across the globe.
