Once you've completed the Collection Challenge by catching all of these, you'll be rewarded with a number of items and progress for your Elite Collector medal. The Sinnoh Collection Challenge is running alongside the Sinnoh Celebration Event and will be available from Tuesday, 12th at 10am (local time) to Sunday, 17th January, ending at 8pm (local time). Collection Challenge can be found on the 'Today View,' which is accessed by pressing the field research button (the little binoculars) in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. You may need to scroll to your left, depending on whether or not you've been looking at your current field or special research tasks. After accessing 'Today View,' you'll find a list of all the Pokémon you need to catch to complete the Collection Challenge. Catching a Pokémon in the Collection Challenge rooster will cause it to be ticked off the list, helping you keep track of which ones you've caught and which you haven't. As you catch Pokémon, they'll be ticked off the Collection Challenge. Remember - you need to complete a Collection Challenge before its associated event ends and it vanishes forever.
