Pokemon GO's Mythic Blade event is now underway, and one component of it is a Collection Challenge. In order to complete this challenge, fans must collect 11 specific Fighting-type Pokemon, one of which is Galarian Farfetch'd. For those players that may be unclear about where they should look for a Galarian Farfetch'd, this guide contains details on a consistent source for the Pokemon, and it will make it quite easy to complete the Mythic Blade Collection Challenge in Pokemon GO.
Pokemon GO: How to Get Galarian Farfetch'd for Mythic Blade Challenge
Players that are on the hunt for a Galarian Farfetch'd should get busy spinning PokeStops. This action will occasionally bestow a Field Research task upon the player, provided that they do not already have three of these types of tasks, and there are two that are of particular interest. Specifically, fans are looking for a Mythic Blade Field Research task that instructs them to catch 15 Fighting-type Pokemon or one that instructs them to power up Pokemon 15 times.
Indeed, these two tasks award Galarian Farfetch'd encounters upon completion, and they both can be resolved quite easily. This ease is, in part, due to the fact that many Fighting-type Pokemon have increased spawn rates for the duration of the Mythic Blade event in Pokemon GO, and fans are thus likely to encounter numerous Hitmonlees, Machops, and more without much effort. Players may also come across some Crabrawlers as they search for Fighting-type Pokemon, as that crab-like Pokemon is making its debut during the event.
With respect to exactly what players will receive once they have caught a Galarian Farfetch'd, and the other Pokemon that are featured in the Mythic Blade Challenge, a Fast TM and a Charged TM are the rewards. For the uninitiated, these items can be used to reroll a Pokemon's Fast and Charged attacks. While Fast and Charged TMs in Pokemon GO are certainly not as valuable as their Elite counterparts, they still have the potential to improve a Pokemon's efficacy in battle.
One last thing to say about the Mythic Blade Collection challenge is that it features three Pokemon that can only be obtained through evolution. Those Pokemon are Machoke, Hariyama, and Medicham, and they evolve from Machop, Makuhita, and Meditite respectively. Fortunately, those three Fighting-type Pokemon are among those that have increased spawn rates for the event, which should make it easier to obtain the Candy that is needed in order to perform the evolutions.
Pokemon GO is available now on mobile devices.
