There are a range of bonuses to enjoy during the Young & Wise event in Pokémon GO.
The Young & Wise event in Pokémon GO will see a focus on XP, hatching Eggs and battling Raids. This event brings several different Pokémon to Raids, and a brand new 2km Egg pool.
However, this event has drawn a bit of criticism. There are no special Wild Spawns, no boosted shiny odds or reduced Hatch Distance. Raids and Incubators are the most expensive things in Pokémon GO, so taking full advantage of the event will be pricey.
Here is everything you can expect in the Young & Wise event in Pokémon GO.
When is the Young & Wise event in Pokémon GO?
The Young & Wise event runs from Tuesday, December 10, at 10am to Saturday, December 14, 2024, at 8pm local time. This gives Trainers five days to hatch as many Eggs as possible, and take on as many Raids as they can find.
Event Bonuses
The following bonuses will be avaliable during the event:
- 2× XP for hatching Eggs.
- 2× XP for winning Raid Battles.
That will mean you could earn 4x Raid or Egg XP if you have a Lucky Egg active. That can be as high as 40k XP when battling a Five-Star Raid. This will be a great week to take on the usual Wednesday Raid Hour.
