We have plenty of gameplay to recap from the last week. The pair of Winter Events made for a nice setting for Wyrdeer Raid Day. With the holiday weekend making it tough for someTrainers to find the time to get out to Raid, we discuss how an increased Remote Raid limit makes for a nice supplement to in person play. Sometimes, but not always, shelling out the cash for Remote Raid passes can equate to a satisfying gameplay and event experience.

Rowlett will be our first Community Day Pokémon of the year and we speculate on if we will see a consistent return to Starter Pokémon alternating months with non starters. Any way you look at it, triple Stardust is worth the effort and mixed with half hatch distance, there are two solid reasons to get some IRL gameplay in.

January looks to have a few tricks up its sleeve but New Year’s will be our first Event of the new year. We hope you like Costume Pokémon because this event is filled with them. While we would always be on the Shiny hunt, the grief of transferring Costume Pokémon is dreaded. Pichu with a Party Hat looks to be a solid chase in the egg department if that’s your thing.

The Aye Aye Captain Wayfarer Review Challenge has wrapped up and the stats are in. As expected, the Wayfinders came out in force and proved that there is an amazingly strong movement of Trainers that believe in Niantic’s vision to map the world. With over 175,000 nominations resolved, and the Challenge making its way to the US, Trainers around the world are able to enjoy the results of the Challenge. For those that took part, the Tier 4 Rewards were absolutely amazing, and the individual rewards were insane.

We wrap things up with a Raid Guide and Battle Party for Buzzwole. While the Shiny will not be available, it is still a cool Pokémon. We turn to Pokébattler to help us construct our teams, and they couldn’t be more different. With Mega Pidgeot making the top 10, can decides to pay tribute to one of Pokémon’s OGs, and bring a party of Pidgeot… Like a G. Adam on the other hand, brings a beautifully diverse mix of hundo Flying Types, with some of his party getting action for the first time.
