In Pokémon GO everything is currently about Bidoof. The monster will also receive its own special research. Here you will find all steps and rewards.
What is it about? In Pokémon GO, the Bidoof are running rampant. On July 1st, the current Bidoof event reaches its peak with the “Bidoof Takeover”. Starting at 10:00 AM, Bidoof will appear more frequently in the wild, will be available as rewards in the battle league, and will occupy raids.
Since you can never have enough Bidoof, there is also the special research “BIDOOF” for the event. To give you an overview of all tasks and rewards, we will show you all steps of the research.
Special Research “Bidoof” – Steps
There are a total of 4 stages in the special research, where you can choose between several options in between.
The tasks are quite easy to solve and should be completed without problems.
“Bidoof” Step 1/4
| Task | Reward |
| Use 3 berries while catching Pokémon | Bidoof encounter |
| Catch 6 Normal-type Pokémon | 3 Razz Berries |
| Catch 3 Bidoof | Bidoof encounter |
Stage reward: Once you complete the stage, you will receive a Bidoof encounter, 399 XP, and 399 Stardust.
Now you must decide: Either you choose the research path “Choose Bidoof” or the research path “Bidoof…?” The differences in the rewards are minimal.
“Bidoof” Step 2a/4 – Choose Bidoof!
| Task | Reward |
| Catch 1 Normal-type Pokémon | Bidoof encounter |
| Take a snapshot of Bidoof | 3 Razz Berries |
| Catch 5 Bidoof | Bidoof encounter |
“Bidoof” Step 2b/4 – Bidoof…?
| Task | Reward |
| Catch 1 Normal-type Pokémon | Bidoof encounter |
| Take a snapshot of Bidoof | 3 Bluk Berries |
| Catch 5 Bidoof | Bidoof encounter |
Stage reward: For completing the stage, there is again a Bidoof encounter, 399 XP, and 399 Stardust – regardless of which of the two paths you chose.
Pokémon GO: Snapshot doesn’t work?
How to solve the snapshot issue: Currently, trainers report that the snapshot in the task does not work as intended and is not counted. This only applies to the variant in the wild: If you photograph a Bidoof in the wild, the snapshot actually does not count. However, if you take a snapshot of a caught Bidoof, the task will be counted.
Once you complete the stage, you can choose again between two variants. Either you dive into “Steel Nerves” or “Nest by Water”.
“Bidoof” Step 3a/4 – Steel Nerves
| Task | Reward |
| Send 10 Pokémon | 10 Hyper Potions |
| Take a snapshot of Bidoof | Bidoof encounter |
| Catch 10 Bidoof | 5 Bluk Berries |
“Bidoof” Step 3b/4 – Nest by Water
| Task | Reward |
| Send 10 Pokémon | 10 Poké Balls |
| Take a snapshot of Bidoof | Bidoof encounter |
| Catch 10 Bidoof | 3 Razz Berries |
Stage reward: For this stage, there is again a Bidoof encounter, 399 XP, and 399 Stardust. This applies again for both paths.
“Bidoof” Step 4/4
| Task | Reward |
| Catch 5 Bidoof | Bidoof encounter |
| Catch 10 Bidoof | Bidoof encounter |
| Catch 15 Bidoof | Bidoof encounter |
Stage reward: Once you complete the final stage of the Bidoof task, there is a final Bidoof encounter as well as 3990 XP. Additionally, you will receive a stylish Bidoof hat for your avatar.
