Pokemon Sun and Moon offers a lot of event this February. A lot of competitions are brewing, including another Alolan-only Pokemon Competition. QR teams and in-game events are also in the list of things to be checked.

First thing first, the Pokemon Sun and Moon Global Missions is out. The mission's theme is to trade Pokemon as much as you can through the Pokemon Global Trade station. One million Pokemon is needed to bear the Pokemon Global Mission. The rewards if the mission is beaten would be 2000 FC nd 200 FC if failed. If the game is tied to a Global link account, 4000 FC will be rewarded for success and 400 for failure. Rare candy will be given to every 5 Pokemon traded on GTS during the mission. The mission will end on February 14 2017.

The 2017 Internatinal Challenge February Competition is announced and it will be a double battle competition and will be using VGC 2017 Rules.
