Pokémon Go Catch Challenge steps and rewards All of the rewards for the February challenge. Guide by Matthew Reynolds Managing Editor Updated on 1 Feb 2022 The Catch Challenge runs throughout February 2022 in Pokémon Go. This is the third monthly challenge introduced as part of the Season of Heritage, with previous entries being the Stardust Challenge and XP Challenge. Throughout the month, you'll receive double XP from each egg hatched, as well as increased Candy XL from eggs. And, if you have access to timed research, you'll be able to complete the Catch Challenge for a new avatar item.

These tickets can be brought through the in-game store - accessed via the main menu - and can not be purchased using PokéCoin. A ticket costs £9.99 / $11.99. Don't want to purchase the ticket to gain access to research, but do want the avatar reward? Don't worry - that will be available for purchase in the shop once the season draws to a close. Catch Challenge quest steps and rewards in Poké mon Go Below you'll find all of the requirements and rewards for the February Catch Challenge in Pokémon Go. This section does contain spoilers for the full quest, so, if you want to be surprised, we recommend skipping. The Catch Challenge, like last month's XP Challenge, is divided into an overall tally for the Pokémon caught for the main reward (600 in total) as well as 15 individual steps. The Noibat Hat for your avatar is the ultimate reward for this challenge. It's important to note that, while the overall tally records every Pokémon caught till the goal is reached, the individual steps reset. This means if you catch a few Pokémon when you have completed a step, those catches will not count as progress towards the next step. As such, it's worth checking the step progress regularly! The main reward for the Catch Challenge is the Noibat Hat and, if you either don't complete the challenge or don't partake in it, this item will be available from the in-game avatar store when January ends. Playing daily, using lures and incense, and if you can, having access to a Go Plus are great ways to help with this challenge. Along with the rewards listed below, you'll also receive a small amount of XP for completing each step.
