GO Wild 2026 — Sat Nov 14 & Sun Nov 15, 10AM–6:30PM, Forest Park Shelter 5.FREE — no tickets, no sign-up, no dues. Just show up.
Shiny Hunters of Noblesville is turning Forest Park into a two-day home base for Pokémon GO Wild Area 2026. Level 8 or level 50, day-one player or someone who reinstalled last week, coming with a full group or showing up alone — you're welcome here. We don't check your team, your badge count, or how much you spend. Bring your kids, bring your parents, bring the friend who only plays when you drag them out.
SURVIVAL KITS — first 100 trainers each day
Long day, big crowds, a lot of walking. The first 100 trainers through check-in each day get a free Survival Kit: an exclusive event patch you can't get any other way, a Scopely code card good for 4 in-game items, 2 extra raffle tickets, and more swag we're not spoiling. It resets each day, so if you miss Saturday you get another shot Sunday — but once they're gone, they're gone. Come early.
THE RAFFLE — 15 prizes, and YOU pick which one your tickets go toward
This isn't a "hope your number comes up" raffle. Every ticket you earn goes on a specific prize — spread them out or stack them all on the one thing you want. Every prize includes the official GO WILD 2026 enamel pin.
Earning tickets is easy: check in (1 ticket, everyone gets one) · kids too young to check in (2) · get your face painted (2) · grab a Survival Kit (2) · wear your Pokémon gear or join a raid train (bonus tickets — we're not spelling out the formula, but trainers who show up in the spirit of the thing tend to end up holding more).
Drawing at 5:30 PM each day. You must be present to win — if we call a name and you're not there, we draw again.
POKÉ BALL HUNT — 5 balls hidden in the park daily
Find one on the trails and bring it back to the Check-In Station. The Ultra Ball is worth $50 in PokéCoins, the Great Ball $25, and three standard Poké Balls $10 each. 100% free to play, anyone can win, and every finder also gets the pin.
FACE PAINTING & HEADBANDS
Artists on site with eight exclusive Pokémon designs — full-face or on arms and hands. Every trainer who gets painted earns 2 raffle tickets. We'll also have free Pikachu, Eevee and Mewtwo headbands for everyone, and we hand out bonus raffle tickets at random times to trainers wearing Pokémon costumes, swag — or the headbands.
CHARGING & TRADING
Both shelters have high-speed charging hubs with plenty of USB-C and USB-A ports, set right in the trading areas so you can sit, charge, and work through special or long-distance trades. Build your trade list ahead of time with our Trade List Generator at inshinyhunters.com and share it to the community hub so trainers at both shelters can see what you've got.
FOOD
Blue Smoke BBQ — local, family-run, slow-smoked, a staple at our events
Fenny's Hot Dogs — back by popular demand after their first event with us
Café Huesca — handcrafted lattes, matcha and chai from a mobile coffee cart. Sunday only, so plan your caffeine accordingly.
ALL DAY
Raid trains running all day, both days.

Everyone's welcome — any level, any team, any age. Two rules: don't cheat, and treat everyone with respect. Do those two things and you'll fit right in.
