In Pokémon GO, many players are probably facing the task “Catch 50 Steel or Psychic type Pokémon” for the Jirachi special research. We will show you how to solve it quickly.
What kind of task is this? At level 4 of the special research about Jirachi, you need to catch 50 Steel or Psychic type Pokémon. Only then can you complete the next stages and catch Jirachi.
Catching the 50 Pokémon is not easy. After all, the Water Festival is currently running, and the required Pokémon are rare.
Catching Steel and Psychic Pokémon – It’s that easy
This will help you: The easiest way to get many Steel Pokémon is the Meltan Mystery Box. There, you get about 20 Meltan each time, and if you catch them all, you have already completed almost half of the task.
The Meltan Box is only available if you trade a Pokémon with one of the Switch games Let’s GO, Pikachu or Eevee.
Catch these Pokémon: During the current Water Festival, especially Water type Pokémon are around. Shellder is the right Pokémon here, as it is both Water type and Psychic type. It’s worth it.
Even during an event, there is always a Pokémon that feels present: Mr. Mime. This regional monster is still frequently found and is also Psychic type.
Additionally, Pokémon like Onix, Meditite, or Natu can also be found. They all count towards the quest.
What you need to consider: In the end, the situation should generally improve after the water event. Especially when it is cloudy, Mr. Mime will be around every corner. In windy weather, you will also see other Psychic Pokémon.
The Water Festival ends on August 30. So by then, you should have no problems with the task.
September will be particularly important in Pokémon GO:
