Pokemon GO's Festival of Lights event adds several new Field Research tasks to the game, and players can access them by spinning PokeStops. That said, fans may want to have more information on these tasks, and the rewards that they can earn by completing them, before they put much effort toward vising those locations. Providing that information is the precise purpose of this guide, and players can find a complete list of Pokemon GO's Festival of Lights Field Research in what follows.
To note, there is also a set of Festival of Lights Timed Research in PoGO at the time of writing, and players may want to peruse its tasks alongside the Field Research tasks. Indeed, there is some nice overlap between these two types of Research, allowing fans to work on more than one task at a time. Considering that these event-exclusive batches of Research will only be available until Monday, October 17 at 8pm local time, some players will definitely appreciate these opportunities to be efficient with their task completion.
Pokemon GO: Festival of Lights 2022 Field Research Tasks and Rewards
Task | Reward |
Catch 5 Pokemon | Chinchou Encounter |
Catch 10 Pokemon | Blitzle Encounter |
Catch 15 Pokemon | Morelull Encounter |
Power up Pokemon 5 Times | Dedenne Encounter |
Hatch an Egg | Galarian Ponyta Encounter |
Send 5 Gifts and Add a Sticker to Each | Electabuzz Encounter or Magmar Encounter |
While the majority of these tasks are very straightforward in their instruction, some players may be slightly confused about how to send Gifts with Stickers in Pokemon GO. To put things simply, PokeStops will serve as a good source for both of these items during the Festival of Lights event, and fans that have this task should make sure to spin every one that they encounter. It is also worth mentioning that Stickers can be bought from the in-game shop, though players should consider the rewards carefully before making such a purchase.
With respect to the rewards to be earned through the completion of the Festival of Lights Field Research tasks, the Chinchou, Blitzle, Galarian Ponyta, Electabuzz, and Magmar all have a chance to be Shiny when they appear for their encounters. It is also worth mentioning that Morelull is making its debut during this event, and many PoGO players will undoubtedly want to catch one as soon as possible. However, Morelull can be found in the wild and can be earned through the aforementioned Timed Research if a fan does not want to engage with Field Research tasks.
Pokemon GO is available on mobile devices.
