How From The Shadows works in Pokémon Go

From The Shadows, which was released in March 2023 during the Let’s Go event, is the latest in the line of Team Go Rocket quests in Pokémon Go.

To access this research quest, you must first complete the 'tutorial' quest, A Troubling Situation. Since From The Shadows is stackable, unlike past Team Go Rocket quest, you can access it without having to complete your previous Team Rocket quest, such as Shadowy Skirmishes, first.

Each Team Go Rocket quest is based around defeating the crime organisation grunts and purifying Shadow Pokémon, which can be found at invaded PokéStops around the world.

You’ll also need to battle the Leaders Arlo, Cliff and Sierra and, eventually, Giovanni.

It’s also important to remember that the highlighted Shadow Legendary released alongside this quest’s debut - Shadow Regice in From The Shadows’s case - is technically not part of the quest itself, but, rather is simply an extra reward for battling Giovanni. Due to this, you can catch the current Shadow Legendary at least twice if you haven’t finished the previous Team Go Rocket quest yet.

Aside from this, the Team Go Rocket quests work exactly the same as the other research quests, which challenge you to complete a number of objectives in a specific order.

Since the Team Go Rocket quests don’t expire, you’ll have a good amount of time to complete From The Shadows. We do recommend ensuring you complete it though, because you won’t be able to access the new quest in the series - which are usually released every three months - until you do.


The Dual Destiny Season is here! It brings the Holiday Part 2 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.


Tips for completing From The Shadows in Pokémon Go

Here are some tips which will help you complete the From The Shadows special research quest in Pokémon Go:

  • Don’t forget to use Pinap Berries when catching Shadow Pokémon to ensure you gather enough Candy to purify the Pokémon once it’s yours.
  • Keep an eye out for the Team Go Rocket Balloons, because the grunt, Team Go Leader and even the Giovanni battles you encounter through them all count towards this quest.
  • Make sure you check the lineup possibilities before battling the three Team Go Rocket Leaders and Giovanni, so you can plan an effective team of counters.
  • Since both the Leaders and Giovanni have a selection of Pokémon they can use, it’s a good idea to scout out their team before properly defeating them - provided you have some healing items on standby for this first ‘trail’ encounter. You can do this by using a Pokémon which is guaranteed to defeat this first Pokémon, which will always be the same, and, once you know what they’re second choice is, you can plan accordingly. Just remember that their lineup may change if you move to a different PokéStop.

Good luck completing From The Shadows!
