[2019] Discover more with Limited Research, featuring Feebas!

Trainers,

It’s time to put your research skills to work and collect Field Research that looks closely at a certain Pokémon species -- let’s do some Limited Research! While the Water-type Pokémon Feebas may not look like much, there’s plenty to learn about the Fish Pokémon! Spin the Photo Disc at nearby PokéStops to obtain Field Research tasks that lead to encounters with Feebas. And, if you’re lucky, you just might find a Shiny Feebas! See more details below:

Feebas migrate quickly during Limited Research, so exploring is key! As long as you’ve collected the Limited Research during the event window, you can complete it at any time. Don’t forget: you’ll need to venture onward to many PokéStops in order to get new Field Research tasks and encounter as many Feebas as possible!

We’re looking forward to seeing you out in the field! Stay safe and happy exploring!
