Pokemon Sun/Moon’s First Global Event Tasks Players With Catching 100 Million Pokemon

The very first Global Mission for Pokemon Sun/Moon is now live, and it tasks the players with the at first seemingly impossible task of catching 100 million Pokemon. You’d probably do a double take at that number and think it is massive, but it’s actually coming down to just 10 Pokemon per player of the game, given that Sun/Moon have apparently already shipped 10 million copies worldwide.

Players will have until December 12 to meet this goal. If they manage to accomplish this, players will win up to 2,000 Festival Coins, and even if the mission is failed, all participants will be gifted with 100 coins just for trying. This is an easy way to earn Festival Coins and upgrade the Festival Plaza, and it ties in, probably, with your standard style of playing Pokemon too, so go at it.

Pokemon Sun/Moon are available right now on Nintendo 3DS worldwide. They are an excellent, excellent game, and the best performing title of 2016.
