The Solstice Horizons event in Pokémon Go can feel like two events in one. This depends on when you play. This setup could make it tough to finish the event-exclusive Collection Challenges. These rely on catching certain Pokémon that appear more often at specific times.
Rare finds like Hisuian Sneasel and another chance at Cosmog are up for grabs in this event. Cosmog first appeared last September.
The “Starry Skies” Special Research Story is also part of the event. It costs $5, but offers lots of rewards, including another shot at catching Nebby. For those not buying the ticket, seeing Pokémon like Lunatone and Solrock worldwide might be tempting enough to play.
If you stay on for more catches, try the Daytime and Nighttime Collection Challenges. They can also help you with the Special Research. Here’s how to nail both Collection Challenges in the Solstice Horizons event.
Daytime Collection Challenge and Rewards
– Catch a Solrock
– Catch a Ledyba
– Catch a Petilil
– Catch a Purrloin
– Catch a Drifloon
– Catch a Sewaddle

For completing these, you get 2,000 Stardust and a Fomantis to catch.
Nighttime Collection Challenge and Rewards
– Catch a Lunatone
– Catch a Spinarak
– Catch an Oddish
– Catch a Stunky
– Catch a Misdreavus
– Catch a Venipede

Finish these tasks for another 2,000 Stardust and a Fomantis encounter.
This event offers a mix of daytime and nighttime challenges, making it a fun split for players. It encourages stepping into the world of Pokémon Go at all hours. Keep these tips in mind to make the most of the Solstice Horizons event.
