There's even a x4 catch XP bonus running throughout Better Together!

'Better Together Timed Research' quest steps in Pokémon Go

Better Together Timed Research is a timed research quest running in Pokémon Go until Monday 22nd July at 8pm (local time).

If you don't complete it by this deadline, then you won't be able to earn all of its rewards. It's a very good idea to complete this quest before it ends too, for one of its rewards is a Tandemaus encounter - the recently released Gen 9 Pokémon.

Here you'll find all of the Better Together Timed Research quest steps and rewards in Pokémon Go. Keep an eye out for spoilers!

Everything we know about Better Together in Pokémon Go

Better Together is running until Monday 22nd July at 8pm (local time) and, during this period, you can benefit from three bonuses. Let's start with the best one first - x4 Catch XP! Thanks to this, Better Together is an excellent time to gather up a load of XP. Even more so if you use a Lucky Egg to double this XP boost.

Alongside this, you'll receive double Catch Candy and friendship levels will increase at a faster rate compared to normal when you're opening Gifts, trading Pokémon or battling together.

Better Together also sees the release of two new Pokémon from Gen 9 - Tandemaus and its evolution, Maushold. In keeping with the event's title, Tandemaus is a pair of little mice who, when they evolve, gain children. If you want to add these Normal-type Pokémon to your collection, check out our page on how to get Tandemaus in Pokémon Go.

Finally, Better Together also marks the release of the pay-to-play Grow Together ticket. It will cost you $4.99 or the equivalent price in your local currency. It is also nonrefundable and can't be purchased using PokéCoins, but can be gifted to players you're Great Friends or higher with. If you do purchase this ticket, you'll be able to benefit from its bonus (additional XP from spinning your first PokéStop everyday) and a timed research quest until Tuesday 3rd September at 10am (local time). Though, as always, if you don't complete this quest by this deadline, you'll lose access to its rewards.

Hope you enjoy the Better Together event!
