From the Paldea region to Poipole, here are all the World of Wonder rewards up for grabs.
The latest season of Pokémon Go – known as World of Wonders – is bursting with new incentives to jump back into the worldwide catch ’em all.
Kicking off in March, it will first see the malevolent Team Rocket’s return as they look to cause chaos and take over the planet. It’s up to the players to band together and stop their leader, Giovanni.
Then, throughout the months, new Pokémon will be introduced among Field Research, Community Days, limited-time stickers and tons of XP points to earn.
To find out the full details, we’ve rounded up everything that Pokémon Go: World of Wonders is set to offer, as well as the timings of when the event will start and end.
