Will there be a Wayfarer booth at Pokemon GO Fest 2025? There are 60 days left until the festival is held. If there are review beginners who are going to grow the Wayfarer badge from now on, they will need 50 reviews per day.
I know everyone is busy with Scopely’s acquisition of the game division, but I would be happy if you could announce it in advance. I would like to see @NianticTintino and @NianticThibs again☺️
Well, you can certainly prepare as if there will be with the understanding that maybe there won’t be. That way you won’t be disappointed if there is not one, but happy and ready if there is.
They do tend to announce in advance, but much closer to GO Fest. Here’s last year’s post for reference, which was posted on May 3rd, 2024:
This was posted a few weeks before the first in-person GO Fest in Sendai, Japan that happened at the end of May/early June 2024. Osaka, Japan is the first in-person GO Fest for 2025 at the end of May/early June, so I would expect the timeframe for an announcement, if there will be booths, to be around the same, early May.
And 50 reveiws a day isn’t impossible. However, it’s agreements that count towards the badge, not reviews. The badge also isn’t real-time synced to your current stats in Wayfarer, so even if someone did reach the top tier in Wayfarer, it may not be reflected yet in PoGo when GO Fest starts.
