Pokémon GO’s Season of World of Wonders’ Sustainability Week event guide

Niantic is bringing back the Sustainability Week event for Pokémon GO this year. For 2024, the event is focused more on hatching Pokémon from event 2 km Eggs. Luckily these Eggs will have a shiny hatching boost. Other than that, there aren’t any themed Wild Encounters or Raids. (For more details about the Season of World of Wonder, you can check out our overall Season of World of Wonder guide hub.)

Now, check out what’s happening during the Sustainability Week event with our guide below:
