Detective Pikachu Returns Collection Challenge
- Catch Sudowoodo
- Catch Snivy
- Catch Rowlet
Since none of these monsters experience a boost in their wild spawn rate, completing the Collection Challenge by hunting in the wild is extremely hard. One needs to complete the Field Research tasks and receive the reward encounters of Sudowoodo, Snivy, and Rowlet. Pokemon GO players will also automatically complete the Collection Challenge by completing the Detective Pikachu Returns Field Research quest.
Along with this Field Research and Collection Challenge, players can also participate in a Timed Research quest. The Pokemon GO Detective Pikachu Returns Timed Research quest rewards valuable in-game items and guaranteed Detective Pikachu encounters with chances to encounter a Shiny Pikachu wearing a detective hat.
