The Might and Mastery season in Pokémon Go is reaching its grand finale, and Niantic is emphasizing the power of teamwork. From Tuesday, May 20th to Thursday, May 22nd, the Strength in Numbers Global Challenge beckons you to shower your friends with Gifts. It's time to get generous!
During this exciting challenge, you can open up to 50 Gifts per day, offering you more opportunities to collect Stardust, useful items, and strengthen friendships. But the real thrill is contributing to a collective goal. If the community meets the challenge, we unlock a fantastic reward: giftable Special Research tickets for the upcoming Community Day Classic: Machop.
Should we succeed, starting on May 23rd, you'll have the chance to send these exclusive Machop Special Research tickets to any friend who's reached Great Friends status with you. You don't even need to purchase one for yourself—just navigate to the in-game shop and spread the Fighting-type love. Each trainer can gift up to 20 tickets daily, so there's ample opportunity to be generous.
This leads seamlessly into the Machop event on May 24th, running from 2 to 5 pm local time. The Superpower Pokémon will be appearing more frequently in the wild, and yes, the Shiny Machop is back, giving everyone another chance to catch and evolve a stunning green-glowing Machamp.
Don't miss out on evolving Machoke into Machamp up until May 31st to get a Machamp that knows Payback, a Dark-type Charged Attack. This move adds a strategic edge to your classic Fighter in various battles. With Stardust bonuses, three-hour Incense and Lures, and limited-time Timed Research that offers a themed Machop encounter with increased Shiny odds, there's a wealth of rewards waiting for you.
