The excitement is building up as we’re just a few days away from the launch of the Wild Area event in Pokémon Go. Before you embark on this thrilling adventure, Niantic has another mini-event planned to get you ready. Into the Wild will be available between November 18th and 22nd, featuring encounters with Electric- and Poison-type Pokémon in the wild, new Collection Challenges, and exclusive rewards. 

Pokémon Go’s Into the Wild event will see the debut of Toxel in 10km Eggs, alongside numerous wild encounters with Pokémon like Ivysaur, Gastly, and Magnemite. And, if you’re up for a challenge, select Pokémon will be available in raids, including special one-day Raid Hours featuring Nihilego, Tapu Koko, Origin Forme Dialga, and Origin Forme Palkia.

If you want to elevate your experience, you can also purchase a ticket for $5.00 which offers either the Raid or Hatch options. The Raid ticket grants daily Timed Research focused on raids, delivering items like Poké Balls, Stardust, and Toxel Candy, plus up to two free daily Raid Passes and bonuses on raid XP and rewards.

Meanwhile, the Hatch ticket supports your egg-hatching efforts with reduced Egg Hatch Distances, double Hatch Stardust and XP, and a chance to obtain Toxel more frequently from 10 km Eggs. Plus, you’ll receive a single-use Incubator daily when spinning PokéStops, making it easier to hatch more Pokémon and enjoy boosted rewards along the way.

In addition to this, there are numerous other activities such as Collection Challenges and Field Research tasks to participate in. Don’t forget to visit the Web Store to stock up on some resources as well. Pokémon Go’s Wild Area event will take place on November 23rd and 24th.
