The Pokémon GO TCG Crossover Event is live, and a whole slate of new Collection Challenges was added for trainers everywhere to complete. As the event runs on, more will be added to the mix, but so far there are six main challenges to pursue.
Most events will have one main Collection Challenge that consists of nine Pokémon from an event-based pool. That even-based pool exists in the TCG Crossover as well, but there is a focus on a separation between Kanto starters. On top of the normal challenges, this event also brings tiers with a higher difficulty for trainers who want even more of a challenge.
Pokémon GO TCG Crossover Advanced Collection Challenges
In total, there will be nine Collection Challenges tied to the TCG Crossover event, and the idea is to create a card rarity difficulty within Pokémon GO. Most trainers will get the first three, but the second set will be even more difficult to get, and so on. Only the most dedicated will end up getting all nine complete by the end.
