Pokemon Go Charge Up event: all tasks and rewards

Complete guide to Pokemon Go Charge Up event tasks, rewards, and expert strategies

Charge Up Event Overview

The electrifying Pokemon Go Charge Up event brings shocking rewards from March 16 at 10:00 AM to March 22 at 8:00 PM local time. This limited-time celebration kicks off the Season of Legends with a focus on Electric-type Pokemon.

Highlights include the debut of Tynamo’s evolution line and Manectric’s Mega Evolution. Trainers can earn rare items like Upgrade for Porygon2 and valuable Mega Energy for Ampharos and Manectric.

The event features four progressive stages of challenges, each offering unique encounters and items. While the tasks escalate in difficulty, strategic planning can help you complete all objectives efficiently.

Task-by-Task Guide

Stage 1: Basic Challenges

  • Catch 5 Electric-type Pokemon: Pikachu reward (Use Incense for faster completion)
  • Evolve a Pokemon: Voltorb reward (Save common spawns for this)
  • Power up 5 times: 10x Poke Balls (Prioritize lowest CP Pokemon)

Completion Rewards: Tynamo encounter, Unova Stone, 10x Ampharos Mega Energy

Stage 2: Throwing Skills

  • 3 Nice throws in a row: Magnemite (Target large-circle Pokemon like Spoink)
  • 3 Curveball throws: Magnemite (Any successful curveball counts)
  • 3 Great throws: Magnemite (Easier on medium-difficulty catches)

Completion Rewards: Magneton, Sinnoh Stone, 10x Manectric Mega Energy

Advanced Completion Strategies

Stardust Conservation

For power-up tasks, always sort by CP and upgrade your lowest-level Pokemon first. While this might seem counterintuitive, powering up a level 5 Pokemon five times costs about 4,500 Stardust compared to 20,000+ for higher-level Pokemon.

Catch Optimization

Use weather boosts to your advantage – Electric-types spawn more frequently during rain. Activate a Magnetic Lure Module at PokéStops to increase Magnemite and Voltorb encounters for evolution tasks.

Evolution Planning

Save all Magnemite catches (25 candy to evolve) and Tynamo encounters (also 25 candy) for evolution tasks. Avoid evolving until you reach the relevant task stage to maximize efficiency.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Premature Transfers

Many trainers transfer Pokemon too early, then struggle with the “Transfer 15 Pokemon” task. Designate a temporary storage folder for event catches until you complete this objective.

Inefficient Power-Ups

Avoid powering up high-CP Pokemon for tasks – the game only counts the action, not the power level. Save your strong Pokemon for actual battles instead.

Missed Timing

With six days to complete, don’t leave all tasks for the last day. Spread out your play sessions to avoid frustration with RNG-dependent tasks like catching specific types.
