Pokémon Go Water Festival: all Research Tasks
The Water Festival in Pokémon Go has begun, adding a paid Timed Research as well as free Field Research to the game. On top of that, Sandygast and Palossand celebrate their debut in the mobile game and a global challenge wants players to make 300 million Nice Throws, which will unlock additional bonuses. Just make sure you don’t drop your phone into the water while hunting for those critters on the beach.
The Water Festival will last until June 12, 2023, at 8pm local time, which should give you enough time to do whatever you set your mind to during the event, such as catching Sandygast and evolving it or netting the Shiny version of Clauncher, which is also available for the first time.
Here are all Pokémon Go Water Festival Research Tasks you can complete as well as their rewards.
