The Festival of Light has started in Pokémon Go and once again puts the focus on Electric-type Pokémon, who can illuminate these dark and cold fall days and keep us warm inside our homes. The annual event is accompanied by the Electric Cup – Great League Edition, where you can put the creatures you catch during the festival to an immediate use in PvP.

If that’s not your thing, then you may want to focus on the Timed Research and Field Research tasks available during the event, which provide access to several Electric- and Fairy-types, among other rewards. This includes the debuting Tadbulb.

Here are all Pokémon Go Festival of Lights 2023 Timed and Field Research tasks.
