In Pokémon GO has started the special research “A Mysterious Energy”. You will be rewarded for the quests with Victini or candies for that. Additionally, there is a lot of Stardust and Pokémon encounters.
What kind of research is this? In Pokémon GO, the special research “A Mysterious Energy” started on the evening of September 30, 2020. It initially ran under the name “The Feeling of Triumph”, but was renamed. This research was announced by Niantic at the beginning of September.
You can find it by tapping on the head of Professor Willow at the bottom right in the game. If you have done this and read his messages, you will find the quest as usual in the overview of the special researches.
What you need to know: Trainers who already participated in the GO Fest 2020 with the special research with Victini could already catch the Pokémon. If you have already caught a Victini, you cannot catch another one through this research. Instead, you will receive additional candies for this species.
