• 2× XP for winning Raid Battles.

The event will also introduce multiple Collection Challenges for players to complete. They will be focused on catch, evolution, and trade. Rewards include Wyrdeer encounter, Psyduck wearing holiday attire encounter, and in-game rewards.

During the Pokemon GO Winter Wonderland event, trainers will be able to find PokeStop Showcases featuring event-themed pocket monsters. This is the same during Winter Holiday Part 1 and Winter Holiday Part 2. The former will mark the debut of a new Gen IX Pokemon, Cetoddle, and its evolution, Cetitan.

In contrast, Wyrdeer hails from Generation VIII. It evolves Stantler in Pokemon Legends Arceus when the latter uses Psyshield Bash in the agile style a minimum of 20 times. The Big Horn reindeer-inspired Pokemon debut is a perfect fit for the holiday festivities and their snowy aesthetics.
