Pokémon Go's Wayfarer Challenge in Chile and India: Nominate Landmarks as PokéStops and Gyms

Author : Aiden Update : Apr 06,2025

Niantic has just kicked off the exciting Wayfarer Challenge in Pokémon Go, offering trainers in Chile and India a unique opportunity to influence their local gaming environment while earning exclusive rewards. By engaging with the Niantic Wayfarer platform to review and approve Wayspot nominations, you can play a pivotal role in adding new PokéStops and Gyms to the game, all while working towards special milestone rewards.

The Pokémon Go Wayfarer Challenge is scheduled to run from March 7th to 9th in Chile and from March 10th to 12th in India. During these dates, you have the chance to nominate real-world locations like landmarks, sculptures, and street art to become PokéStops and Gyms, enhancing the gaming experience for everyone in your community.

Participating in the review process helps achieve community milestones. If the collective effort results in 5,000 resolved nominations, all participants will be rewarded with 20 Ultra Balls, a Star Piece, an Incense, and a Poffin. Should the community surpass this and reach 10,000 approvals, the rewards escalate to 25 Ultra Balls, two Star Pieces, two Incense, two Poffins, and a Lucky Egg.

To join in, you must be at least level 37 in Pokémon Go and have a Niantic Wayfarer account. New users will need to complete the Wayfarer Orientation before they can start reviewing nominations. Additionally, you must have recently played in Chile or India or set your Wayfarer Hometown or Bonus Location to one of these countries. To be eligible for rewards, you need to review at least 50 nominations, and at least one milestone must be achieved.
