Author: Patrick May 02,2025

Niantic has unveiled the exciting Wayfarer Challenge in Pokémon Go, offering trainers in Chile and India a unique opportunity to enhance their local gaming environment while earning exclusive rewards. By actively participating in reviewing and approving Wayspot nominations via the Niantic Wayfarer platform, you can play a pivotal role in adding new PokéStops and Gyms to the game, contributing to the community's growth and earning special milestone rewards along the way.

The Pokémon Go Wayfarer Challenge is scheduled to run from March 7th to 9th in Chile, and from March 10th to 12th in India. During this event, you have the chance to nominate real-world landmarks, sculptures, street art, and more, transforming them into interactive PokéStops and Gyms within the game.

Your participation in reviewing these nominations helps achieve community milestone goals. Should the community successfully resolve 5,000 nominations, all participants will be rewarded with 20 Ultra Balls, a Star Piece, an Incense, and a Poffin. If the milestone climbs to 10,000 approvals, the rewards escalate to 25 Ultra Balls, two Star Pieces, two Incense, two Poffins, and a Lucky Egg.

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