How to get more VP fast in Pokémon Champions

VP, or Victory Points, is the main currency in Pokémon Champions, and you’ll need to earn a lot of them. You’ll need the currency for doing almost anything in the game, and you’ll feel the pinch once you’re a few hours in.

Thankfully, there are some key ways to earn them efficiently.

Best ways to farm VP in Pokémon Champions

First, you should complete all the available tutorials. This includes the advanced ones that teach you about concepts like Status Effects. This way, you’ll get a total of 20,000 VP without spending any real-life money. This is a nice boost to have at the start of your adventures.

The initial fight tutorial grants you 10,000 VP. To get the rest, head to Training and then select Battle Tutorials. Some of them will offer VP, so you should complete those first. The others are also important, as you’ll get free Mega Stones and other freebies.

• Complete the dailies without failure. You need to complete any three of your preference, and you’ll get a total of 500 VP. Do this daily over a month, and you’ll have 15,000 VP in a month (assuming there are no changes to the rate).
• Log in five times in a week, and you’ll get 2,000 VP (you can repeat this four times a month, earning 8,000 VP).
• Win ranked battles to get more VP every week. Winning games also fetches you more VP compared to losses, and that’s also something to keep in mind.
• Other weeklies include tasks like completing Mega Evolutions, recruiting more Pokémon, etc.

There’s another bonus way of obtaining more VP if you’ve Pokémon HOME installed. If you transfer a Pokémon from HOME to Champions, you’ll get 3,000 VP. This is a one-time reward only, but it’s another reward you won’t want to miss out on.

Finally, you’ll get most of your VP by simply winning games. Even completing matches earns you VP, but winning gives you much more. Moreover, there’s no daily or weekly cap on the amount of VP you can earn from Ranked games. Hence, you should aim to use the best possible Pokémon to increase the chances in your favor.

Your journey from Finland to Russia in Road to Vostok doesn’t need to be a lonely march, and that can be ensured by finding a cat on the fourth day of your adventure. If you manage to survive the first three days, you’ll be tasked with finding a missing cat.

Let’s look at how you can rescue it and add it as your beloved companion.

How to complete the Missing Cat event in Road to Vostok

You have to survive the first three days, and you will be able to accept the quest. The cat can be found in the Outpost area, but for that, you’ll need to prepare carefully. The quest requires you to travel from the Village to the School, and then to the Outpost, and then again return via the same route. Since you’ll lose hydration and energy at all levels, you’ll need water and food.

Stick to the right side of the map, go past the lake, and you’ll find a road. Stick to the road, head right, and you’ll find the Transfer sign that takes you to the School area. Once you’re at the School, walk near the cover that will lead you to the bridge. This is a straight route, but there will be enemies around.

Reach the end of the bridge, and you’ll reach the Outpost area. The Outpost is extremely dangerous since it’s an open area, and you can get shot. There are three bunkers at this location: the first one is immediately on the right of the spawn point. The second one will be to the left of the Red Farmhouse. Finally, the third one is to the right of the Red Farmhouse.

Once again, keep to your right, and you’ll come across a small hill. There’s an entrance to an underground bunker that will lead you to the cat. Go inside a room on your left, and you’ll find a small well (look for the entrance hidden by wooden planks). You’ll find the black cat in a cardboard box. Interact with the well to rescue the cat.

The exact location of the cat could differ on your save. It can spawn in any of the three bunkers at the Outpost location. Once you rescue the cat, head back via the same route that you came from. Don’t die along the way, as you’ll need to restart the entire process.
