Minum is one of the required Pokemon needed to complete the Hoenn Challenge in Pokemon Go. This guide will show players how they can find and capture it. Minum and its counterpart, Plusle, are amongst the most challenging Pokemon to encounter for this challenge. While many of the other Pokemon for this challenge (including the starter Pokemon) can be encountered out in the wild, Plusle and Minum have a specific way to find it. The Hoenn Collection challenge is the third of these weekly challenges testing player's ability to find a specific set of Pokemon from their respective regions. This guide will show players how they can find and capture Minum.
While the rewards themselves for completing the Collection Challenges are only a few items, the real prize is the exclusive medal the player will get for completing that week's goal. The challenge ends this Sunday and the medal will disappear along with it. The medal doesn't really do much (for now) but it is something players should strive for if they want to experience everything Pokemon Go has to offer. There is a sense of accomplishment that comes with completing these challenges every week. Here is how players can find Minum to complete this challenge.
How To Find (& Catch) Minum in Pokemon Go (Hoenn Collection)
Minum (& Plusle) are the most challenging Pokemon to find for the Hoenn Collection. In order to find them, they will need to complete the Field Research task requiring the player to capture 11 Pokemon. While the challenge itself isn't too difficult, it's finding the challenge that will prove to be an issue. Each Field Research is randomly produced when spinning a PokeStop. The best thing to do to find the correct Field Research is to throw away any other ones you may have.
Continue heading to PokeStops and spinning until it appears. It is also one of the rarer to appear in the group. After finding it and capturing 11 Pokemon, the player will be rewarded with a 50% chance of the Pokemon being a Minum. The game might also throw the player a Plusle, another Pokemon needed to complete this challenge. The best thing to do is to be patient, go out for a walk, and spin as many PokeStops as you can until the Field Research appears. This challenge is only available until this Sunday. Once the week comes to a close, the Hoenn Collection challenge will come to a close.
Pokemon Go is available now on iOS and Android.
