Air Adventures field research tasks in Pokémon Go

You can currently collect field research tasks exclusive to the Air Adventures event in Pokémon Go by spinning PokéStops. These tasks can be saved in your field research collection and completed after the event ends if you so wish.

Here are the Air Adventures field research tasks:

Thank you to SilphScience from reddit for the help with this information.

The Season of Go has arrived! The Pokémon TCG Crossover event is here, which includes the release of Wimpod and Golisopod. While Go Fest 2022 may be behind us, there are still three special research quests you might be working on - Pokémon Go Fest 2022, Rhi's Arrival and A Radiant World. Meanwhile, the Great League and Great League and Great League Remix are currently running in the Go Battle League Season 11. This season has also seen the lowering of the level requirement for Candy XL and introduced the first Ultra Beast, Nihilego.

Everything else we know about the Air Adventures event in Pokémon

The Air Adventures event in Pokémon Go runs until Sunday, 8th May at 8pm (local time) and, throughout this time, any egg placed in an incubator will have its hatch distance halved.

Air Adventures also continues celebrating the Mega Evolution rework with the release of Mega Latias and Mega Latios. These are the first legendary Mega Evolutions to appear in Pokémon Go, so it’s a good idea to know both Mega Latias’ weaknesses and Mega Latios’ weaknesses before battling them.

If you do successfully capture either Latias or Latios, maybe even both, during Air Adventures, then you’ll discover they know a move exclusive to this event. Below you’ll find said exclusive moves, along with how powerful each one is in trainer battles, gyms and raids:

Latias - Mist Ball (Psychic Charged Attack)

Latios - Luster Purge (Psychic Charged Attack)

Alongside these new Mega Pokémon, you can also battle Charizard, Lapras and Togekiss in three-star raids.

Air Adventures also sees a welcome return to Flying Pikachu - one of Pikachu’s many different costumes. Flying Pikachu can be caught through a variety of means during the event, including appearing in the wild alongside the following Pokémon:

Doduo, Wingull and Drifloon are among the Pokémon appearing more frequently in the wild.

Finally, any 7km egg collected during Air Adventures will have the following egg pool:

Tier One

Have fun during the Air Adventures event!
