In Pokémon GO, there will be a new special research related to the GO Fest in Chicago. This could also be interesting for German players. We’ll tell you why.
This special research is about: Niantic announced three GO Fests worldwide for the summer. As it has now been revealed, there will even be a special research for the GO Fest in Chicago.
Last year at the GO Fest in Chicago, after the event was over, the special research was also made available in a modified form for the whole world. This might be the case here as well.
This is what we know so far about the special research
What does Niantic say? The information has leaked via “Serebii” on Twitter. This player is in direct contact with Niantic and regularly receives information about the game.
He has now confirmed the special research for the GO Fest in Chicago.
Which Pokémon is it about? This is still unknown. Many players suspect that it will allow you to obtain Jirachi. This is a mysterious Pokémon from the 3rd generation and would fit perfectly for this task. It can be well compared with Mew or Celebi.
That’s why it’s interesting for us Germans: The special research could also have a significant impact on us German players.
There is also a GO Fest in Dortmund this summer. It is easy to imagine that the special research will also be active in Dortmund. However, this remains speculation for now.
Additionally, there was such research last year at the GO Fest in Chicago. There, Celebi was unlocked. After the event, a special research around Celebi could also be completed worldwide.
What players say: Many players share the assumption of a worldwide special research. As “InfinitePotat0” writes on Reddit: “So will it be August before the whole world gets the chance?”
Another player replies: “It will depend on when Asia holds their GO Fest. They won’t release it worldwide before the Asians have had their chance.” Thus, he shares the assumption that the GO Fest in Dortmund will also receive the special research.
Niantic has also announced the dates for upcoming Community Days. Will you be participating?
