Special Research- A Ripple in Time

Stage 1
 Trainer, you’ve been such a help in conducting Field Research and Special Research! I have a feeling that there’s so much more about this world that we’ve yet to discover, and I’m glad I can count on you to see it through. I’ve been doing some experiments of my own, and I suspect that I’m onto a further exciting discovery about another Mythical Pokémon that’s rarely seen. Would you mind completing these tasks while I conclude my studies.

Stage 2
 Wow, you and your Pokémon have some amazing power! But according to my most recent data, it seems that the Mythical Pokémon I’m tracking only appears in times of peace. Also, from what I’ve gathered, it seems fond of forests and lush greens. Would you mind exploring this further, Trainer?
Objectives
  • Make 3 new friends (1500 XP)
  • Evolve an evolved Type Pokémon (1500 XP)
  • Catch a Pokémon 3 days in a row (1500 XP)

Stage 3
 Excellent work, Trainer! I feel we’re getting closer to this Mythical Pokémon. I wonder if we can find some more friends for it by hatching some Eggs. Ah, and maybe you could put that Sun Stone you’ve earned to good use as well?
Objectives
  • Use a Sun Stone to evolve Gloom or Sunkern (2000 XP)
  • Hatch 9 Eggs (2000 XP)
  • Reach Level 25 (2000 XP)

Stage 4
 Oh wow, is that an Eevee you’ve caught? Perfect timing! Did you know that this Pokémon’s unstable genetic makeup enables it to take on one of several different Evolutions? I’ll bet if you spend some time with it during the day, you’ll be able to evolve your Eevee into an Espeon—a Psychic-type Pokémon just like the Mythical Pokémon I’m researching!
Objectives
  • Evolve Eevee into Espeon during the day (2500 XP)
  • Walk 10 km with Eevee as your buddy to earn 2 Candy (2500 XP)
  • Send 20 Gifts (2500 XP)

Stage 5
 Oh wow, is that an Eevee you’ve caught? Perfect timing!
Wait… Have we…had this conversation already? I’m getting a funny feeling in the back of my mind—like we’ve been here before. Trainer, would you spend some time with this Eevee during the night? I think you’ll be able to see an intriguing evolved form as a result. I wonder if this funny feeling will recur...
Objectives
  • Evolve Eevee into Umbreon during the night (3000 XP)
  • Walk 10 km with Eevee as your buddy to earn 2 Candy (3000 XP)
  • Trade a Pokemon (3000 XP)

Stage 6
 Trainer, I have some exciting news! That funny feeling hasn’t returned, but I did some important reading and learned that the Mythical Pokémon we’re researching has the ability to travel across time! Maybe that’s why all of this is occurring…or recurring… Maybe this Pokémon is nearby?!
I suggest that you collect samples over the course of the next week and experiment with some Evolution items to see whether that feeling occurs again. While you’re at it, do you have any Pinap Berries? My research could benefit from more data on their use. Return with that, and you can have these exotic Silver Pinap Berries!
Objectives
  • Visit PokeStops 7 days in a row (3500 XP)
  • Use 25 Pinap Berries while catching Pokemon (3500 XP)
  • Use items to evolve Pokemon 2 times (3500 XP)

Stage 7
 This data is so helpful. Thank you! I’ll use it to explore my theory. While you were in the field, I made more headway in learning about this Mythical Pokémon, and it seems that its mere presence causes grass and trees to flourish. I think if you catch more Grass-type Pokémon, this elusive time-traveling Pokémon will reveal itself!
Objectives
  • Catch 40 or Pokémon using a Berry (4000 XP)
  • Make 1 Excellent Curve throw (4000 XP)
  • Earn a Gold Johto medal (4000 XP)

Stage 8
 Trainer, what an amazing experience! The appearance of the Mythical Pokémon Celebi is thought to be a sign that a bright and shining future awaits us. You’ve come a long way in your research, and I must say you’re inspiring me to discover even more Pokémon. Until next time, Trainer!
