Pokemon GO Noxious Swamp Timed Research: All tasks and rewards

With the Noxious Swamp event arriving in Pokemon GO, players around the world can finally dive into everything that the occasion has to offer. Poison and Dragon-type Pokemon from GO Fest 2023 New York City will run amok in the popular AR title for the next few days. Players will be able to encounter exciting wild spawns, fight off powerful Shadow Raid Bosses, and complete an event-exclusive Timed Research questline.

The Noxious Swamp event is scheduled to begin on Saturday, August 19, 2023, at 10 am local time and will continue until Tuesday, August 22, 2023, at 8 pm local time. During that period, Shiny Skrelp will make its debut in-game and will be available as wild spawns and Field Research encounters.

The Timed Research questline in question is available for free to any trainer during the event. Players should keep in mind that they need to complete the tasks and redeem rewards before the questline expires on Tuesday, August 22, 2023, at 8 pm local time.
