After Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn regions, it's now Sinnoh's turn for the Pokemon GO Throwback Challenge 2020, and like with the past regions, players have to finish different sets of tasks to get rewarded with Pokemon encounters and Berries.
Pokemon GO Sinnoh Throwback Challenge 2020
As with past Throwback Challenges, completing all of the missions will reward players with an encounter with a special Pokemon native to the region--and this time, fans can have the chance to capture Cresselia with the move Grass Knot.
In addition, there are also Time Research tasks that Pokemon GO players can finish for additional Pokemon encounters, as per GameRant.
Since this week's featured region is Sinnoh, Pokemon from the area will spawn more, plus they will be hatched from 7km eggs that you get during the event, which will last all week.
You'll also get one hour Incense, Lucky Egg, and a Star Piece.
This week, a shiny version of the Glameow will also make its debut as well as the Pikachu with a Lucario Hat.
