Pokemon GO's Into the Wild event kicks off today, on November 10, at 10 am local time and ends on November 14 at 8 pm local time. The event introduces Ralt's Dynamax form to the mobile game for the first time, and players can also pay a few bucks to get a ticket for premium research tasks that reward Rare Candy, Premium Battle Passes, and more goodies. There's also a collection challenge for Into the Wild and some spawns and raids you should know about, which will be covered in this Pokemon GO guide.
During the 'Into the Wild' event, trainers can also look forward to the following bonuses: Remote Raid limit increased to 30, no Remote raid limit (Nov 15 to Nov 16), special event stickers, and you can use a Charged TM to help a Shadow Pokemon forget the Charged Attack Frustration.
