Players have a limited amount of time to complete a new Collection Challenge.
The Mythic Blade event has kicked off in Pokemon Go!
As part of this event, players can complete the “Mythic Blade Challenge” Collection Challenge to receive a Fast TM and a Charged TM.
The Mythic Blade Challenge asks players to collect the following Pokemon before the Mythic Blade event ends:
Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, Hitmontop, Machop, Makuhita, and Meditite will appear more frequently than normal in the wild during the Mythic Blade event. Crabrawler will also have the chance to appear in the wild during this event, though the Pokemon Go website indicated it will be rarer.
If you’re having trouble finding Meditite in the wild, this Pokemon will also appear in Tier-1 Raids during the Mythic Blade event.
Next, players can receive encounters with Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, Hitmontop, and Galarian Farfetch’d by completing event-themed Field Research tasks during this event.
Three Pokemon – Machoke, Hariyama, and Medicham – can only be collected through evolution. This means you’ll need to evolve Machop into Machoke (this requires 25 Machop Candy), evolve Makuhita into Hariyama (this requires 50 Makuhita Candy), and evolve Meditite into Medicham (this requires 50 Meditite Candy) to complete these three entries in the Collection Challenge.
Finally, if players purchase this event’s premium ticket for $7.99, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, Hitmontop, and Machop will have the chance to appear when they use Incense during this event.
