Pokemon GO's fifth anniversary collection challenge rewards players for catching Chikorita, along with other certain Pokemon. Players can encounter Chikorita after using five Berries for helping to catch Pokemon. Players may also encounter Cyndaquil and Totodile during this task. After completing all the tasks in the collection challenge, players can receive three Rare Candies, 80 Poke balls, and a Flying Pikachu encounter.
Chikorita's go-to moves include Vine Whip, Grass Knot, Energy Ball, Tackle, and Body Slam. Since Chikorita is a Grass-type Pokemon, players can use Fire-, Flying-, Poison-, Bug-, or Ice-type Pokemon as counter opponents. Some of the best counter Pokemon to use against Chikorita include Chandelure, Volcarona, Darmanitan, and Charizard. However, when using Chikorita, you shouldn't fight against Water-, Grass-, Electric, or Ground-type Pokemon. Chikorita can evolve into Bayleef, which costs 25 Candy. Players can then use 100 Candy when evolving Bayleef into Meganium.
