The Christmas Events in Pokemon Vortex take place each year during the time of Christmas. The Christmas Events allow players to obtain Christmas forms of existing Pokemon either by hunting or the Quiz Shop. Additionally, other smaller events are also run during this time such as Double Experience gain after trainer battles or exclusive auctions.
Tokens
Christmas events tend to revolve around claiming the event Pokemon with tokens that can be earned by various methods - normally by catching/evolving the regular forms of the corresponding Pokemon, logging into the game, completing a certain sidequest region (chosen according to the event) or a 1% chance from the Season Battle Tower. The variant of Pokemon caught/evolved determines the amount of tokens obtained. The amount of tokens required to claim a Pokemon depends on the variant chosen.
