On the occasion of the Pokémon GO: Kanto Tour event, Niantic kicks off this new set of missions with different Sinnoh collectible challenges.
The Pokémon GO Sinnoh Celebration Event has already started.

It is the time of the fourth generation, Sinnoh, which comes accompanied by a lot of Pokémon, missions and details that we will discuss next in this guide.
