Pokémon Go Launches Wayfarer Challenge in Chile and India for New PokéStops and Gyms

Niantic has exciting news for Pokémon Go trainers in Chile and India with the launch of the Wayfarer Challenge. This event offers a unique opportunity to influence your local gaming environment while earning exclusive rewards. By participating in the review and approval of Wayspot nominations on the Niantic Wayfarer platform, you can help bring new PokéStops and Gyms to life in Pokémon Go, all while working towards special milestone rewards.

The Wayfarer Challenge will take place from March 7th to 9th in Chile and from March 10th to 12th in India. During these dates, you can nominate real-world locations such as landmarks, sculptures, and street art to become PokéStops and Gyms. Your contributions to reviewing these nominations will help reach community milestones. If the community resolves 5,000 nominations, all participants will be rewarded with 20 Ultra Balls, a Star Piece, an Incense, and a Poffin. Should the community hit 10,000 approvals, the rewards escalate to 25 Ultra Balls, two Star Pieces, two Incense, two Poffins, and a Lucky Egg.

To participate, you must be at least level 37 in Pokémon Go and have a Niantic Wayfarer account. New users will need to complete the Wayfarer Orientation before they can start reviewing nominations. Additionally, you must have recently played in Chile or India or set your Wayfarer Hometown or Bonus Location to one of these countries. To qualify for rewards, you need to review at least 50 nominations, and at least one milestone must be achieved.

Running concurrently with the Wayfarer Challenge, the PokéStop Challenge event will occur from March 9th to 12th, exclusively in Chile and India. During this event, you'll earn 3x XP for visiting new PokéStops for the first time, 3x Stardust from opening Gifts, and see increased Kecleon spawns.
