It’s a special day in Pokémon Go where Niantic is celebrating Bidoof. This underrated Pokémon is receiving quite a bit of attention, with its evolved form being able to learn multiple charged moves during the celebration that it normally would not be able to learn. For Bidoof Day, there is a special research project that all players will be able to receive starting on July 1, and players have a full day to complete it. None of the tasks are overly complicated, but it is the first Special Research featuring branching choices, so the tasks and rewards will vary depending on what option you pick.
We’ve listed out all of the options available, all of the tasks you need to complete, and the rewards you receive for your participation. There are only two branching options, so it’s not a huge change, and many of the rewards revolve around Bidoof encounters, so it’s a good way for Pokémon Go players to test out this system before Pokémon Go Fest 2021.
