Wild Area: Nagasaki Japan Exclusive Information

Stamp Rally

Ticket holding trainers at the Nagasaki, Japan event can look forward to a a brand new Stamp Rally on their event ticket day!

You’ll be able to explore real life locations in the city and discover landmarks to collect in-game stamps to complete the Stamp Rally.

What is a Stamp Rally?

A Pokémon GO Stamp Rally is an activity where Trainers visit specific PokéStops or Gyms to collect stamps by spinning the Photo Disc. As Trainers explore different locations to fill their Stamp Rally card, they can view their progress on the Scrapbook page and unlock rewards and Pokémon encounters along the way.

How to Participate

Each GO Stamp Rally has a unique theme, requiring Trainers to visit designated PokéStops to collect stamps. By checking your Map, you can view which locations are participating in a Rally.

1. When you are near a participating PokéStop, a stamp icon will appear on the map. 
2. Once you approach the PokéStop, you will automatically receive a stamp sheet.
3. Spin the Photo Disc where a stamp icon is displayed, and a circular stamp sheet will appear.
4. Tap or press and hold the centre of the circle; the density of the ink will vary based on how long you press. Please Note: Stamps cannot be re-stamped or adjusted once placed.
5. A stamp animation will play, indicating you have received the stamp.
6. As you collect stamps, you’ll receive rewards such as items or encounters that may be themed to the Stamp Rally. You can track your collection progress on the Scrapbook page.

You can track your progress by viewing all collected stamps in the Scrapbook page.
