The paid Timed Research ticket is back, but slightly changed. Instead of buying a ticket for each month, an entire season’s worth of monthly paid Timed Research quests is…
Niantic is bringing back Diancie for all Trainers in a free Special Research Story (similar to the rerelease of Shaymin’s Special Research). For Trainers that didn’t purchase the paid ticket for Pokémon GO Fest 2023, here’s your chance to add Diancie to your Pokédex thanks to the free Glitz and…

Plenty of Nintendo franchises lend themselves well to manga adaptations and many of them have gotten them, from the long-running Pokémon series to the acclaimed Zelda interpretations.
