Pokemon GO Spring into Spring Collection Challenge

The ice has thawed and the temperature’s rising… it’s spring! Spring is a time of renewal and verdure, both in the real world and in the world of Pokemon. In the latter case, though, it also marks increased activity of certain wild Pokemon returning from hibernation and basking in the sunshine. With these Pokemon out and about, it’s a great time for some Pokedex research. Here’s what you need to know about the Pokemon GO Spring into Spring Collection Challenge.

As part of the Spring into Spring event, which began today, April 12, and will last until Monday, April 18, Pokemon GO is offering a collection challenge. If you can successfully capture all of the Pokemon on the collection list, you’ll receive a lump payout of handy resources, plus an encounter with a rarer Pokemon. If you’re going out to enjoy the sunshine anyway, you might as well track down some Pokemon.
