Pokemon Go: A Winter Wonderland Christmas mini-event

Pokemon Go Winter Wonderland December Holiday 2021

Pokemon Go is holding a Winter Wonderland mini-event for Christmas, featuring a collection challenge with a bit of a twist.

What can we expect from the Winter Wonderland Pokemon Go event?

This unique mini-event features a small number of different components, and it’s a bit different from the usual things we get from Pokemon Go events.

For starters, the trade range boost to 40km will return, from the 24th of December at 10am PST (GMT-8), lasting until December 27th at 10am PST – making it far easier for Trainers to trade with those nearby who might be out of range normally. This isn’t enough for remote trades like many players wish we had, but it is a nice boost regardless.

Now, remember I mentioned that unusual collection challenge? Well, there’s a reason we got the trade range boost.

Pokemon Go Winter Wonderland Collection Challenge

The collection challenge is focused on, and strictly requires, trading with your friends. You will need to trade to obtain all of the following Pokemon for them to count as progress during the challenge.

  • Swinub
  • Snorunt
  • Spheal
  • Snover
  • Vanillite
  • Cubchoo

Note that none of these traded Pokemon explicitly have to be the costumed versions of them.

Completing this challenge will earn players Galarian Mr Mime – The Challenge part of the event starts on December 25th at 10:00 am Local time. and ends the next day on the 26th at 8:00 pm Local time.

Is there anything else?

Additionally, Field research tasks during the event can feature Delibird, who is available as a Shiny Pokemon.

That’s about everything as far as this mini-event is concerned, but if you’d like more guides or articles about Pokemon Go, you can find them right here on The Click, and if you’d instead like to see more by me specifically, a list of my articles is available here.
