A Throwback Challenge has appeared in Pokemon Go. This guide will help players unlock it and defeat it. New challenges pop up in Pokemon Go every few months to celebrate specific seasons or have limited time Pokemon to capture. Typically, these events are completely free and consist of the mission structure of the game. Players will need to complete certain tasks to get rewarded with perks like special encounters of rare Pokemon or with special evolutionary items like the Sinnoh or Unova Stones. This guide is going to help players unlock the upcoming Throwback Challenge in Pokemon Go. It's important to mention that this one is a premium experience.
The Throwback Challenge can only be unlocked by purchasing it a ticket for it beginning on June 3rd at 1 pm. The ticket itself sells for $7.99 USD and is only available for purchase for a limited time, ending sales on June 8th. This ticket is non-refundable and provides the player with several features including early access to new Pokemon. This is not the first time Pokemon Go has done events like this, as certain legendary Pokemon raids were locked behind paywalls until they released for free later on. This guide will provide the player with everything they get fro the Throwback Challenge ticket.
Pokemon GO Throwback Challenge 2020
For starters, the player will have the opportunity to encounter a Galarian Mewoth of a Galarian Stunfisk. This will be their first time in Pokemon Go. New research tasks will appear, rewarding the player with the chance to run into more Unova Pokemon like Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, Blitzle, Audino, Darumaka, Gothita, and Genesect. Also, the player can earn new clothing items for their avatar, including exclusive Professor Willow glasses. In Pokemon Go, players are allowed to change their appearance by purchasing items in the shop using Poke Coins. Also, if the player captures a Pokemon from the research tasks, the player will be rewarded 10 candies. This is only if the player has access to the Throwback Challenge 2020 Special Research.
Pokemon Go is one of the bigger video game titles effected by the situation surrounding COVID-19. Considering the game requires players to go outside and explore their world, the game has had to make major changes to make it playable at home. These changes include new items known as the Remote Raid Pass, where players can participate in raids from a far off distance and cheaper prices for items in the item shop. Pokemon Go continues to do its Community Day events as well, a special day every month where Pokemon spawns increase sustainably. Galarian Meowth and Stunfisk won't appear in the game normally for a while. This is a great chance to get these special Pokemon early.
Pokemon Go is available now on iOS and Android.
