“A Radiant Reunion” is the second special research you can complete during the Pokémon GO Fest Finale. We at MeinMMO have looked into what tasks and rewards are hidden in the research series and when each of the quests will be available to you.
What kind of research is this? In Pokémon GO, today you can expect the big GO Fest Finale, which brings you plenty of spawns and bonuses, but you can also look forward to some cool special research.
In addition to the special research “Willow’s Return”, which all trainers will receive, there will be another research series under the name “A Radiant Reunion” that will be specifically available to ticket holders.
