How 'A Mega Discovery' works in Pokémon Go
Research Quests, which allow you to complete objectives for rewards, were introduced into Pokémon Go in March 2018.
There are three types of Research Quests - Field Research, Timed Research and Special Research. Unlike Field Research tasks, which offer a selection of tasks that can be completed whenever the player chooses, Special Research tasks are the same for every player and have a set, story driver, order.
A Mega Discovery is a Special Research questline designed to teach players how to use Mega Evolution, which was introduced into Pokémon Go in August 2020.
The quest itself consists of four steps, which each contain three individual challenges. You'll be rewarded for every individual challenge and overall step you complete. By the end of the Special Research, you'll be able to Mega Evolve Beedrill with ease.
There's no restriction to when you can complete A Mega Discovery, so feel free to begin your exploration into Mega Evolution whenever you please.
The Dual Destiny Season is here! It brings the Holiday Part 1 event with it. You can now catch Dynamax Pokémon through Max Battles. First, however, you need to visit Power Spots to collect Max Particles and complete the To the Max! quest. Don't forget to try out Routes, Gift Exchange and Party Play while you're hunting down rare Pokémon, fighting in the Go Battle League or competing in PokéStop Showcases.
