Farming Stardust in Pokemon Go becomes significantly easier during the Strength of Steel event, due to the 3x catch bonus. However, there is a specific Gen 5 Nest that provides millions of this invaluable resource in a short amount of time.
Audino, a popular Normal-type Pokemon, stands out as one of the few in the game that grants additional Stardust upon capture. In fact, it boasts the highest reward of 2,100 Stardust, motivating players to tirelessly catch as many as they can.
Despite its rarity in the wild, a Reddit user by the name of ‘-Joyous’ shared that Audino has been appearing frequently in Forest biomes, resulting in a whopping 500k Stardust gained in a mere two hours.

Thanks to the Strength of Steel event’s 3x bonus, catching just one Audino can earn you a whopping 6,300 Stardust. And if you add an active Star Piece into the mix, the item’s 50% boost will bring your total up to 9,450.
The post caused a stir in the community, as many expressed their desire to find an Audino Nest, although a few fans stated that they had never come across one before.
It should be noted that a Nest is a designated area where a particular Pokemon is known to frequently appear, typically located within parks. These Nests typically remain active for a minimum of two weeks before the Pokemon species migrates to a different location.
However, it seems that you have the potential to earn more than 9,450 Stardust. According to trainers, during in-game weather conditions of Partly Cloudy, a 25% multiplier is applied to Stardust gains, resulting in a generous 11,800 Stardust per catch. What’s even more advantageous is that this weather condition occurs frequently in Pokemon Go.
With this strategy, you can quickly amass millions of Stardust in just a few hours of gameplay. Just be aware that catching Audino can be challenging due to its low catch rate, so it’s important to come prepared with an ample supply of Poke Balls and Berries.
Be sure to keep an eye out for PokeStops or Gyms nearby to ensure that you have a constant supply of these items, and strive for Excellent Throws. If you are unable to locate an Audino Nest, you can always resort to using Niantic Campfire.
Additionally, Audino also possesses a Mega Evolution that will eventually be introduced in Pokemon Go. It is worth attempting to catch one with a perfect IV rating.
