As Holiday Event 2021: Part Two begins to light up the overworld of Pokémon Go, players will find more festive content being added to the game as Niantic brings the game’s year to an end.
During this portion of the event, players will still be able to encounter Holiday Delibird, Holiday Stantler, Holiday Spheal, Holiday Cubchoo, Holiday Glaceon, and Pikachu in a holiday hat, but several new additions have been added to the list of spawns. For example, Bergmite and its evolution Avalugg are making their Pokémon Go debut alongside the Shiny forms of Galarian Darumaka and Darmanitan.
And while part two is running from Dec. 23 to 31, players can complete various event-exclusive research and challenges to earn additional rewards and encounters. Specifically for the challenges, there will be one for catching Pokémon and another centered around sending and opening Gifts to tie into the spirit of Christmas.
Completing these challenges will net players two opportunities to encounter and capture Galarian Mr. Mime, along with several other bonuses. So if you plan on tackling the festive tasks, here is what you can expect to encounter.
