Pokemon Go regularly features research quests for players to work through by themselves, but every now and then there are limited-time Global Challenges that require players around the world to join forces to meet a set goal.
The latest Global Challenge has arrived as part of the 2023 Valentine’s Day event. If you’re wondering how to complete it or what bonuses are on offer as a reward, you’ll find everything you need to know below.
Pokemon Go Valentine’s Day Global Challenge explained
In order to complete the Valentine’s Day Global Challenge in Pokemon Go, players around the world need to send a grand total of 100,000,000 Gifts to friends before February 14, 2023.
