Pokémon Go Adventure Week: All Research tasks and rewards

As a seasoned Pokémon Go player with years of digital battles and real-life adventures under my belt, I can confidently say that the latest Adventure Week is nothing short of a dream come true! The extended duration, the increased XP rewards, and the chance to encounter Shiny variants of some classic Pokémon are just the tip of the iceberg.


Kick off a fresh month with the latest Pokémon Go Adventure Week! Here’s the lowdown on the research tasks and rewards to ensure you don’t miss any exciting opportunities.

In addition, the Shadow Cresselia Raid has been added to the Pokémon Go Raid calendar for August. As ever, Giovanni continues with his mischievous activities, but we’ve got the perfect strategies to take him down.

There are new ‘mon in the Pokémon Go Spotlight Hour to check out too.

If traditional digital Pokémon doesn’t satisfy you, consider wearing Pokémon-themed Crocs to leave envious folks in tears. Perhaps if they could comfort themselves with Pokémon Soda Pop Plushies, their envy might subside.

Yet they certainly will be if they found out you had a Pokémon Le Creuset set – and so would we!

But seeing as it’s Adventure Week and not Adventure Forever, we better crack on with it. Read on!

When is Pokémon Go Adventure Week? Dates and times

Pokémon Go’s Adventure Week event takes place from 10 a.m. British Summer Time on Friday, August 2nd, all the way up to 11:59 p.m. British Summer Time on Monday, August 12th.

Although the title is ‘Adventure Week’, it’s actually closer to an ‘Adventure Week Plus a Day or Two’. We’re quite pleased about this extended duration, as it provides us with additional time to attempt to accomplish all the activities planned.

Commencing work on a Friday morning also provides the opportunity for us to accomplish certain tasks even during our midday break.

It’s great for you if your Friday is free or you’re working just half a day. We can’t help but wish for some of those extra Experience Points (XP) you’ll be earning while we’re busy working. Of course, there’s no resentment involved…honest!
