In Pokémon GO, there was a mistake in the limited research involving the legendary monsters. For this, Niantic will now compensate you handsomely.
What kind of research is this? During the “Way to Einall” event, there is limited research in Pokémon GO where you must win a total of 11 raids. For each successful task step, you will encounter a legendary Pokémon.
As Niantic states on X, there was a mistake in the research, causing the progress for some trainers not to be counted. And that’s exactly why there is now compensation for all trainers – and it’s quite significant.
Legendary Pokémon for everyone!
What kind of compensation is this? To compensate trainers for not receiving progress in the research, Niantic has opted for a strong compensation. All trainers will receive the same research again, but with a small difference.
In the second version of the research, all tasks are already completed. This means you can collect all the rewards directly without having to complete raids.
What rewards are in the research? You can look forward to the following legendary Pokémon in the research:
- Terrakion
- Kobalion
- Virizion
- Boreas (Incarnate Form)
- Voltolos (Incarnate Form)
- Demeteros (Incarnate Form)
- Genesect (Normal Form as well as once with Aqua, Bolt, Flame, and Chill Modules)
Additionally, when you have collected all the legendary Pokémon, you will receive 10 candies each for Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem.
How long is the research active? If you don’t want to miss out on the rewards, you need to redeem them by Saturday, March 1, 2025, at 10:00 AM. After that, the research will disappear, and you will have no way to receive the rewards.
If you collect the rewards during the Spotlight Hour that will be repeated on February 26, 2025, you can even receive double the amount of candies when catching the legendary Pokémon.
The research and the “Way to Einall” event are meant to prepare you in-game for the big Einall Tour taking place next weekend on March 1 and 2, 2025. We have already gathered information for you and summarized all known content of the Einall Tour.
