The Raging Battles event has begun in Pokemon GO, and alongside themed wild spawns and the debut of Annihilape, there are two Collection Challenges for you to take on.

Collection Challenges are limited-time quests that require you to catch or evolve a certain set of Pokemon. You'll usually get a decent set of rewards for finishing them, so it's always worth doing them where possible!

How to complete Inner Focus Collection Challenge

Here are the Pokemon you need to catch or evolve to complete the Inner Focus Collection Challenge:

Pokemon How to get them What they look like
Mankey Spawning in the wild and appearing as a Field Research reward Mankey
Primeape Evolve a Mankey with 50 Candy Primeape
Scraggy Spawning in the wild Scraggy
Lickitung Spawning in the wild Lickitung
Throh Spawning in the wild Throh in Pokemon GO

Completion rewards: 3 Charged TMs and 3000 Stardust

How to complete Vital Spirit Collection Challenge

Here are the Pokemon you need to catch or evolve to complete the Vital Spirit Collection Challenge:

Pokemon How to get them What they look like
Mankey Spawning in the wild and appearing as a Field Research reward Mankey
Primeape Evolve a Mankey with 50 Candy Primeape
Sableye Spawning in the wild Sableye
Gligar Spawning in the wild Gligar
Sawk Spawning in the wild Sawk in Pokemon GO

Completion rewards: 3 Fast TMs and 3000 Stardust

One good thing about these Collection Challenges is that they run alongside each other, so catching a Mankey and evolving it into Primeape will tick off two Pokemon on both challenges simultaneously.

As for Throh and Sawk, these regional exclusives will be spawning in the wild regardless of your location during the Raging Battles event, so you shouldn't have any trouble obtaining them.

Pokemon GO Raging Battles Field Research tasks

The Raging Battles event also comes with a set of exclusive Field Research tasks which you can see below:

Task Reward
Catch 3 Fighting-type Pokemon 5 Revives or 5 Hyper Potions
Power up Pokemon 5 times Mankey encounter
Win 2 Raids 3000 Stardust
Defeat 2 Team GO Rocket Grunts 1 Mysterious Component

Shoutout to LeekDuck for help with this information!

You can get these tasks by spinning PokeStops during the Raging Battles event, which runs from January 19 to January 24, 2024. If you don't get the task you want, simply delete it and spin another PokeStop.

That's everything you need to know about the Raging Battles Collection Challenges! Visit our Pokemon homepage for more guides like the Spotlight Hour schedule or the current Raid Bosses you can battle.
