Pokémon Go Fest’s Surprise: Steps to Catch Tricky Pokemon

The latest second-generation mythical monster and the last to arrive in the game is Celebi.

This time, contrary to receiving Celebi as a gift just like Lugia, you need to earn it by completing a number of challenges and here is how you can do it.

First step

These research tasks are so simple even an average player can complete them. This is what you need to do:

1. Catch 15 Pokémon
2. While walking with your partner Pokémon earn a Buddy Candy
3. Spin three PokéStops or Pokémon Gyms

To help with these tasks, Pokémon Go Fest will take place at Chicago’s Lincoln Park where you can find lots of PokéStops to run into and keep your Buddy Pokémon happy.

Second step

This one is a little tricky, and you might get frustrated but here is what you need to achieve:

1. Catch ten grass-type Pokémon
2. Catch ten rock-type Pokémon
3. Catch ten fire-type Pokémon
4. Catch ten ice-type Pokémon
5. Catch ten water-type Pokémon
6. Catch ten steel-type Pokémon

Because Pokémon Go Fest is made into four different “habitats ” with each one developed for a specific type of Pokémon, you might need to turn back if you have already passed half your 1.8-mile walk before you reach this phase and the warm weather does not really help.

Third and last step

As this is the final step, it is also the most difficult, but if you have come all the way up to this step, why not continue and get a Celebi?

1. Hatch three Eggs
2. Catch seven Unown
3. Spin three PokéStops

Pokémon Go’s events are the best method of getting an Unown. They are a letter of the alphabet, and you need to catch enough of them to spell “Celebi.”

Not even hatching three Eggs is easy but if you really want this Pokémon good luck in completing all these tasks.
