Pokémon Go Concludes Might and Mastery Season with Global Challenge

The Might and Mastery season in *Pokémon GO* is reaching its exciting conclusion, and Niantic is turning the spotlight on teamwork with a special Global Challenge event. From Tuesday, May 20th to Thursday, May 22nd, Trainers worldwide are invited to participate in **"Strength in Numbers"**, a time-limited challenge focused entirely on sending Gifts to friends—and the more you send, the better the rewards for everyone.

During this three-day window, players can open up to **50 Gifts per day**, offering increased chances to earn Stardust, useful items, and friendship boosts. More importantly, each Gift sent brings the global community closer to unlocking a valuable prize: **giftable Special Research tickets** for the upcoming **Community Day Classic: Machop**.

Unlocking Giftable Special Research Tickets

If the global goal is met in time, starting on **May 23rd**, Trainers will be able to send **Special Research tickets** for the Machop Community Day Classic to any friend who has reached **Great Friends status** or higher. Even better, you don’t need to own a ticket yourself to gift one—just head to the in-game shop and start sharing the Fighting-type fun. Each player can send up to **20 tickets per day**, giving everyone ample opportunity to spread the excitement.

Machop Community Day Classic: May 24th

This event leads directly into the main attraction: the **Machop Community Day Classic** on **Friday, May 24th**, from **2 PM to 5 PM local time**. During those three hours, Machop will appear far more frequently in the wild, and yes—**Shiny Machop** will also return, giving Trainers a second chance to complete their collection or build a glowing Machamp squad.

Exclusive Move & Bonus Features

For a limited time, evolving Machoke before **May 31st** will grant you a Machamp that knows **Payback**, a powerful Dark-type Charged Attack. This move offers new strategic advantages in battles, making it a must-have for competitive players.

In addition to the exclusive move, the event brings several bonuses:

• Increased Stardust rewards
• Three-hour Incense and Lure Modules
• Timed Research featuring a themed Machop encounter with boosted Shiny odds
