One of the major bonuses of the Halloween event is the evolution of Galar-Flegmon into Galar-Laschoking. Trainers were particularly excited about this new content and couldn’t wait to add the new Pokémon to their collection. However, a bug interfered with the trainers’ plans.
Due to a bug in Pokémon GO, you currently have a new, limited research. You should definitely complete this research if you are looking forward to a Galar-Laschoking. Because it provides the necessary prerequisites for you to have the coveted Pokémon in your collection soon.
