Pokemon GO’sfirst attempt ata for-pay only Special Research storylineis just around the corner and most trainers are currently debating whether the experience (and the rewards) are going to be worth the $8 price tag. There are pros and cons on both sides of the argument, but players who are leaning towards participating should start planning the best way to complete the challenge now.
Although most of the tasks will be pretty straightforward and can be completed without too much extra effort, especially given the extra ten Raid Passes that are included in the entry fee, there is one particular requirement that will prove tricky. The task in question involves catching a specific set ofPokemon GOLegendary Pokemon who aren’t always going to be readily available in the mobile game.
So, as long as the Colossal Discovery Special Research is purchased and unlocked this coming weekend, then players have as long as they need to complete it. That said, the tasks gets exponentially more challenging after November 4 because of the coming raid boss rotation. Apparently the Special Research storyline is going to require players to catch Regirock, Regice, and Registeel. That trio leaves the current Raid Rotation November 4 at 1pm. That means players should take a break from catchingthe best Unova region Pokemonand concentrate on completing these raids while their available.
This has led to some speculation that the trio will return as the November and December Special Research Breakthrough rewards, but that doesn’t been confirmed yet. Niantic is currently recommending that players try their hardest to complete the Colossal Discovery storyline by November 4, so there may not be any other easy opportunities to encounter that trio in the near future.
