Explore Sydney with the Pokémon GO Stamp Rally
Get ready for a citywide treasure hunt! The GO Stamp Rally sends players to seven iconic Sydney locations — including Darling Harbour, Circular Quay, and Centennial Park — where spinning PokéStops earns unique stamps and encounters with Eevee wearing an explorer hat. Each stamp design changes based on press time, so no two stamps are the same. Complete the rally once per day for maximum rewards.
Featured Landmarks:
- Darling Harbour
- Sydney City Centre
- Royal Botanic Gardens
- Circular Quay
- Milsons Point
- Manly Beach
- Centennial Park

Special Pokémon and Shiny Encounters
During the event, Sydney will be teeming with themed Pokémon — including the event-exclusive Mudbray, the Donkey Pokémon, appearing in the wild for the first time at a City Safari. Keep an eye out for Shiny versions, too, if luck’s on your side.
