How to complete Pokemon Go Winter Holiday event and catch Galarian Mr. Mime

PART two of Pokemon Go’s Winter Wonderland event is underway, and there’s still time to encounter Galarian Mr. Mime.

If you missed out on the Winter Wonderland mini-event collection challenge, there are still two ways to get yourself this Pokemon variant which can evolve into Mr. Rime.

There’s also a ton of other content to tuck into as the second part of the Pokemon Go Winter Holiday event unfolds.

It wraps up on Friday, December 31 at 8pm local time, so there’s a couple days left to tick everything off.

Pokemon Go Holidays 2021: Galarian Mr. Mime encounter

The Pokemon Go blog revealed two Timed Research events that will lead to a Galarian Mr. Mime encounter.

The last time we saw this pokemon was last year when it was tucked away behind a paywall.

Complete these research challenges before the end of the week and it’s yours for free.

And Galarian Mr. Mime is the only variant that can evolve into Mr. Rime, so it’s worth nabbing while you can. You just need 50 Mr. Mime Candies!

The Winter Wonderland mini-event is over so the Collection challenge for Galarian Mr. Mime is no longer live.
