How to Complete the Pokemon GO Spooky Message Research Tasks & All Rewards
Here’s how to complete the Pokemon GO Spooky Message Research Tasks and what all the rewards are.
As in previous years, Niantic has gone all in on the Pokemon GO Halloween celebrations, which coincide with the released of Gen 4 Pokemon.
One of the new features, which ties into Halloween and new Pokemon, is the Spooky Message Special Research Tasks that culminate in you getting the chance to catch Spiritomb.
While the Pokemon GO Spooky Message tasks work in the same way as others, this is the first time that we’ve seen them for a Pokemon that isn’t a legendary. Spiritomb simply ties into the holiday and is a cool Pokemon.
The Spooky Message Special Research Tasks should already be live in your game, or you’ll be introduced to them next time you start the game up.
They are also split up into three sections, with you having to complete all the tasks in one set to move onto the next. Here are all the requirements to complete the tasks and what they reward you with.
