In Pokémon GO the Candela event “A Bold Hero” starts today, bringing you a special research of the same name. We at MeinMMO show you what tasks and rewards await you.
What research is it about? On the occasion of the event “A Bold Hero”, which starts today on May 11, 2023, at 10 AM local time, you will receive a corresponding special research. This includes a total of 4 panels with 3 tasks each.
As a highlight, you will finally encounter a special Ponita wearing a Candela accessory. With a bit of luck, you might even see it in its shiny form. We have summarized all the tasks you need to complete and what additional content awaits you with the help of the overview from LeekDuck below.
Update from May 11, 2023, 7:30 PM: The text for the task on panel 2 has since been adjusted in the game. To complete the quest, you must perform 5 very effective charge attacks.
A Bold Hero 1/4
| Task | Reward |
| Catch 15 Pokémon | 10 Poké Balls |
| Use 15 berries to catch Pokémon | 10 Razz Berries |
| Perform 5 Power-Ups on Pokémon | 1,000 Stardust |
Stage reward: Once you have completed all three tasks of this panel and collected the respective rewards, you will also receive 1,500 XP and an encounter with Charmander.
A Bold Hero 2/4
| Task | Reward |
| Use 5 very effective charge attacks | 10 Nanab Berries |
| Perform 10 Power-Ups on Pokémon | 2,000 Stardust |
| Battle against 3 members of Team GO Rocket | 5 Revives |
Stage reward: Once you have completed all three tasks of this panel and collected the respective rewards, you will also receive 2,000 XP and an encounter with Velursi.
Note: As the PokeMiners, a group of data miners, reported on their Twitter account on the morning of May 11, there appears to have been a text error on this panel. In the original version, it states that you should use 5 charge attacks, but what is meant are very effective charge attacks (via twitter.com).
As of now (May 11, 2023, 7:30 PM), this phrasing in the quest is correct. To complete the task, you must therefore perform 5 very effective charge attacks.
How you can track down the members of Team GO Rocket is revealed in the following video:
