Pokémon GO Global Challenge Research Tasks Bring Bonuses
Join forces with Trainers from all over the world to unlock cool bonuses in Pokémon GO this summer.
June 11, 2019
Summertime is here once again, and with it comes a trio of exciting live Pokémon GO Fest events. To commemorate these celebrations, fans all over the world will be able to take part in Professor Willow’s Global Challenge. The Global Challenge is comprised of three research challenges—one for each Pokémon GO Fest event—with separate research tasks for attendees of each Pokémon GO Fest and members of Team Instinct, Team Mystic, and Team Valor.
If each group completes their individual research tasks within the allotted time, all players will earn a special reward in Pokémon GO. If all four groups reach their goals, a special Raid Day will be unlocked that includes a chance to encounter a Shiny version of a Legendary Pokémon.
And that’s not all! If Trainers all over the world are able to complete all the Global Challenge goals throughout the summer, an even more exciting bonus will be unlocked! What will that bonus be? Well, some things need to remain a surprise now, don’t they?
To help you get ready for the upcoming tasks, check out what you’ll have to look forward to this summer during the three Pokémon GO Fests below.
