Tips for Verdant Wonders Collection Challenge
- Focus on catching Bulbasaur, Oddish, Hoppip, Shroomish, and Cottonee in the wild. These Pokemon will have increased spawns throughout the event.
- Evolving Efficiency: Stock up on Candy for Bulbasaur, Oddish, and Hoppip by catching multiples and transferring them to Professor Willow. Remember, you only need 25 Candy for each first evolution.
- Whimsicott's evolution requires a Sun Stone, a rarer evolution item. If you don't have one, try spinning PokéStops, completing Field Research tasks, or defeating Team GO Rocket Grunts.
- Event Bonuses: Take advantage of the event's boosted spawns. Keep an eye out for Bulbasaur, Oddish, Hoppip, Shroomish, and Cottonee appearing more frequently.
Remember, Trainers: The Verdant Wonders Collection Challenge is only available during the event period. So, lace up your walking shoes, grab your Poke Balls, and conquer the jungle to claim your well-deserved rewards!
