Pokémon GO HOME Timed Research Guide

Niantic really loves surprises it seems, and today came another big one. While the new integration between Pokémon GO and Pokémon Home was a great thing for players, the celebration hasn’t stopped there. Various bonuses have been happening since that announcement, and today sees a new event to fully appreciate the big changes in the game. And along with the overall Pokémon GO HOME event comes a brand new timed research. To break it all down, including how to complete it and what are the rewards, here’s our Pokémon GO HOME Timed Research guide.

When is the Pokémon GO HOME Timed Research Available

The Pokémon GO HOME event begins on Tuesday, November 17th at 8am your local time. It will last until November 23rd at 10pm, and the Timed Research will stick to this schedule as well.

It’s not the toughest research the game has thrown at players, and the rewards aren’t stellar either so don’t be too concerned if you’re busy and can’t get the time in.
