The Stardust Challenge is live in Pokemon Go for the month of December. Players can earn bonus Stardust and collect enough to earn daily rewards. From now until December 31st, players can complete 15 steps of the challenge by earning Stardust. Each step has different rewards like encounters, items, and XP.
The final reward for earning 120,000 Stardust during December is the Deino Hat Avatar item. Inspired by Deino's pointy black fur on its head, the Deino Hat can be equipped to your avatar to look like the Pokemon's wild mop of fur. If the Deino Hat is not earned during the event, it will be available for purchase from the in-game store after December 31st.
