Summary

  • A new global challenge, “Might and Mastery Finale: Strength in Numbers,” runs from Tuesday, May 20, at 12 am PT to Thursday, May 22, at 12 pm PT.
  • Completing the challenge grants special research tickets for Machop Community Day.
  • Pokemon GO’s new Global Challenge aims to unite players by sending gifts

Beginning May 20, Pokemon GO has unveiled a fresh Global Challenge – a new activity taking place during their ongoing Might and Mastery season. This event will be among the final opportunities for trainers to engage with Pokemon GO in May.

In the world of Pokémon GO, Global Challenges serve as a shared objective for players worldwide. These tasks are generally simple and not overly challenging. A past global challenge required players to jointly complete 40 million raids, which granted double Stardust upon capturing Pokémon. More recently, Niantic introduced new global challenges with rewards like double XP and an encounter with the Gen 9 creature Fidough. As of now, developers have announced another global challenge for players to tackle, offering rewards such as extra experience points and a chance to encounter the monster Fidough. Here’s what Pokémon GO fans can anticipate from this upcoming challenge.

Starting from Tuesday, May 20, at midnight Pacific Time and ending on Thursday, May 22, at noon Pacific Time, Pokemon GO has launched a global event titled “Might and Mastery Finale: Strength in Numbers”. In this event, players are encouraged to exchange gifts with one another. To facilitate the achievement of the goal, Niantic has boosted the daily limit of gifts that can be sent from 30 to 50. Upon successfully completing the challenge, trainers will receive free Special Research tickets for the May 2025 Community Day Classic featuring Machop as a reward, which they can gift to their friends.

Pokemon GO Announces a New Global Challenge

  • Date: Tuesday, May 20, at 12 am PT to Thursday, May 22, at 12 pm PT
  • Objective: send gifts to other players
  • Reward: The ability to gift free Special Research tickets for May 2025 Community Day Classic: Machop

Starting this Friday, May 23rd at 10 am, I’ll be able to grab some Special Research tickets for the Community Day Classic in the in-game shop of Pokemon GO. These tickets will be available until May 24th at 5 pm local time. As a Great Friend or higher with someone, I can gift up to 20 tickets daily. Completing these tasks as a trainer will bring rewards like a Premium Battle Pass, a chunk of Rare Candy XL, extra Machop encounters, and three special Machop encounters with a Seasonal Special Background!

Participants of Pokemon GO can join the Community Day Classic featuring Machop on Saturday, May 24, between 2 pm and 5 pm local time. During this period, players will notice an increase in the appearance of Machop in the wild. If they manage to evolve it during the event, they’ll receive a Machoke that knows the Charged Attack Payback. Just like other events of this nature, the May Community Day Classic will offer benefits such as triple the Stardust gained from catching Pokemon, and Lure Modules with extended durations.
