From June 16 to 30, Pokémon that will make an appearance in the special TCG set will be appearing more frequently in the wild and in raids, along with more than six Collection Challenges to complete themed around those spawns. 

Six Collection Challenges will be available right as the event begins, and an additional three will go live on June 23, giving players access to even more rewards. These will all be tied to the wild and raid spawns during the event, including one for each of the Kanto starters and trading.

Throughout the crossover, players will encounter Pokémon like Wimpod and Golisopod—that are making their Pokémon Go debut—and a special TCG hat Pikachu that will also be appearing in the TCG set. Solrock and Lunatone will even be appearing in the wild globally and not just in hemisphere-limited regions for a limited time.
