Ruby VS Sapphire Challenge
As earth and sea clash, you’ll have to pick a side! All trainers will need to pick between a Ruby and Sapphire Badge, and the team you pick will shape your Pokémon encounters. Trainers who attend the Las Vegas in-person event will pick their badge in Vegas, and it will carry over into the global event.
Each hour you will be able to complete special field research tasks to help your team. Depending on which team completes more research, all trainers will see increased Primal Raids for either Primal Groudon (Ruby) or Primal Kyogre (Sapphire), plus an increased chance of encountering certain wild Pokémon.
