"Pokemon Sun and Moon" has just launched its third Global Mission last week. And with it, players are tasked to trade more than a million Pokemon through the GTS.

Since the mission has started, players have swiftly exceeded the expected 1 million Pokemon goal, making the game a success. According to Siliconera, there are more than 2 million Pokemon traded through the GTS.

Third Global Mission Made Up For The Failures Of Previous Two Events

If ever the goal is met, each participant receives 2,000 Festival Coins. Now that the goal has been met, participants will surely rejoice big-time.

And if ever the numbers get to double its numbers, the event's participants will also be entitled to receive a Friend Ball. It really is a surprise to know that the third Pokemon Sun and Moon Global Mission event turned out successfully, despite the previous two being obvious flops.

One of the reasons that made this possible is that Game Freak, the game's developer, had instead tasked players to trade as many Pokemon possible. This proved to be a very good strategy as a specific number is not specified directly.

Getting An Instant 2,000 Festival Coins And Friend Ball

According to Destructoid, even though the third Global Mission has already started, players can still catch up with the fun. Players just need to go to the Pokemon Sun and Moon Festival Plaza, head directly to the castle's lady, and they'll instantly be entitled to receive 2,000 Festival Coins.

If the current trend continues, everyone should then expect to also have a free Friend Ball. Every participant should thus spread the word about the event to increase the likelihood of it really doubling in numbers. With the massive success this year's event is experiencing, there is no doubt that it will be followed up by another fourth Pokemon Sun and Moon Global Mission.
