About the Anomaly
Anomaly FAQ
An anomaly is a FREE city-based Ingress event hosted by Niantic and passionately supported by our dedicated local organizing team. Anomalies have been taking place all around the world since 2013, and we're thrilled to announce that Valencia will be hosting an anomaly on October 18th, 2025. The main anomaly event is scheduled for Saturday, but there will be related activities and gatherings happening throughout the weekend.
Valencia anomaly event itself will span approximately 3 hours, encompassing 3-4 hours of exhilarating gameplay. Following the anomaly, there's also an optional social meetup at a Resistance afterparty to celebrate a day of intense competition and camaraderie.
Whether you're a seasoned anomaly veteran or a new agent eager to learn the ins and outs of Ingress, there's a place for you with the Resistance at the Valencia anomaly!
Our dedicated Resistance organizers are working tirelessly to ensure that every agent's needs are met. We've curated assignments for both fast-moving teams and those who prefer a slower, more strategic approach.
No matter your preferences, you're a vital part of our team, and we value your participation!
The Resistance organizers are here to assist with travel and accommodation advice, party planning, merchandise, and coordinated strategies for Resistance players. Our goal is to make your anomaly weekend an unforgettable and immersive experience!
Anomalies offer a multitude of unique opportunities, including:
Apart from being a great reason and opportunity to explore new places and meet awesome people, Ingress anomalies are competitive virtual battles between the Resistance and the Enlightened.
Anomalies are typically part of a series, with the win for either faction, determining the ultimate victor.
Niantic chooses anomaly locations based solely on their own decision process.
We are excited about the opportunity to host a great event for all the Resistance agents in the wonderful city of Valencia and can't wait to make it a successful and fun day for everyone!
We do not yet have official rules for the Valencia anomaly, but will post them here once they are released.
Gameplay will likely consist of a combination of Battle Beacon and Shard play.
In anomalies, we play in teams. This can be you and your friends, or we will assign you a team optimized to your speed and experience.
Your timetable will depend on your team's assignment. Playing in a coordinated group helps us to coordinate everything on the day, and is the only way we can win the anomaly.
Once you register, we will explain the whole anomaly and everything you'll need to do on the day in detail.
No, Niantic has changed how this works. You no longer need to register with Niantic to earn the anomaly badge.
We are not certain of the requirements for the Valencia anomaly badge but if 2025 is any indication, you gain anomaly tokens for completing anomaly bounties and when reached a certain number of tokens, you gain bronze/silver/gold medal.
Just be sure to register with the Resistance so that we can help make your experience and our chances of winning the best possible!
You can create your own team with your friends after you have signed up. Many players sign up in groups that always go to anomalies together.
But it's OK if you don't know anybody yet. We can assign you to a team that matches your speed, language, physical capabilities and experience.
The Valencia anomaly will take place on Saturday, October 18th, 2025, in the afternoon, with exact times to be announced closer to the date.
However, your team will be likely to meet up earlier in the day so that everyone can get to know each other.
