How to complete the Unova Collection Challenge in Pokémon Go

Stock up on Poké Balls and get slinging.

Developer Niantic is introducing the new Collection Challenges for the first time during the Unova Celebration Event in Pokémon Go. Trainers are tasked with catching a specific list of Pokémon and will be rewarded with a shiny new badge and consumable items for their hard work.

Here are the Pokémon you’ll need to catch to finish the challenge.

  • Capture a Snivy
  • Capture an Oshawott
  • Capture a Tepig
  • Capture a Lillipup
  • Capture a Herdier
  • Capture a Roggenrola
  • Capture a Solosis
  • Capture a Ferroseed
  • Capture a Blitzle

Upon completion, you’ll be rewarded with 3,000 Stardust, 30 Poké Balls, and five Rare Candies.

Most of the Pokémon on the list should a breeze to catch. Aside from Roggenrola, who’s hatching from five-kilometer eggs, the Unovan natives will be experiencing increased drop rates from Jan. 5 at 10am to Jan. 10 at 8pm local time. Plus, look out for a shiny Snivy to add more glitter to your collection.

The challenge will only activate during the official event timings, so catching one of these creatures too early or too late won’t be counted.
