The "Just My Cup of Tea" event in Pokémon Go introduces Sinistea with engaging bonuses and research opportunities from December 3-7.

Players can obtain Shadow Cresselia by completing the 'Adventure Week: Taken Over' Giovanni research quest during the event.

The "Galarian Expedition: Taken Over" event focuses on new Special Research tasks and increased Team Go Rocket encounters from Oct. 8-11.

Giovanni's team had a refresh in the finale of the 'Timeless Travels' Special Research.

Shadow Kyogre is currently part of Giovanni's team but may be swapped out for a new legendary in the future.

Giovanni is a tough opponent to battle, so it's important to have counters ready.

Niantic rotates Dynamax Pokémon monthly, requiring strategic planning for players.

Only Dynamax Pokémon can engage in Max Raids, highlighting their necessity in gameplay.

New players receive a Dynamax Wooloo from a special research task as a starting aid.

The "Dual Destiny" season introduces new Special Research tied to seasonal events, available from Dec. 3, 2023, until March 4, 2025.

Participants must choose between electric or poison paths in the 2024 event, impacting future bonuses and rewards.

The Special Research will not expire, encouraging players to explore at their own pace, but timely completion is beneficial.

The "Galar Calling" research allows players to choose a starter and participate in a long-term event with ample time to complete tasks.
