Pokémon Go is hosting an “Into the Wild” event from Nov. 18-22, leading into the big upcoming “Wild Area” event.

This lead-up event increases the remote raid pass limit to 20 (until Nov. 21) and from Nov. 22-24, there won’t be any limit on remote raiding, so players can get in on the Wild Area action wherever they are. This event also globally introduces Toxel and its evolution, Toxtricity, for the first time — which can be found shiny (if you’re super lucky).

Toxel and both Toxtricity forms with their shiny versions in Pokémon Go. Both shinies turn pink.

Below, we list out all the perks for the Pokémon Go “Into the Wild” event, including the paid Timed Research, Field Research, spawns, and event egg hatches.

Pokémon Go ‘Into the Wild’ event Timed Research and reward

There are two paid tickets as part of this event, each $4.99. They both give a special Timed Research set, as well as individual bonuses. The raid ticket gives you two free raid passes per day, 5,000 extra XP from raids, and one extra candy per completed raid. The hatch ticket gives you an increased chance to find Toxel in eggs, halved egg hatch distance, doubled hatch Stardust, XP, and candy, and one single-use Incubator per day.

Are the “Into the Wild” paid tickets worth it? If you make use of all the daily freebies, you’ll get more than the initial value back, so yes. The hatching ticket is really worth it if you plan on walking a ton and hatching a bunch of eggs.

We list out the Timed Research for each ticket below. Remember that you need to complete the research for this before the event ends on Nov. 22 at 11:59 p.m. in your local time.

Rewards: 1 Toxel Candy XL, 3 Toxel Candy, and 1,000 Stardust
