Battling Team Rocket has never been more rewarding.

The next set of weekly challenges leading up to Pokémon Go Fest 2020 is officially rolling out. And this time, it’s been hijacked by Team GO Rocket and their new balloons.

Last week, the challenges were focused on testing a player’s skill in catching Pokémon and throwing Poké Balls. But now, it’s shifted to a focus on battling. 

To complete all of the Battle Challenge week tasks, players will need to battle GO Rocket Grunts, power up their team, and purify Shadow Pokémon that they rescue from the evil team. And just like with last week’s challenges, if one million players from any team show up and complete all of the challenges, every player from that team will unlock an additional rare encounter. They don’t need to complete the Elite challenges, but it’s a good bonus objective.

Here are all of the Go Fest Skill Challenge week tasks and rewards.
