Pokemon Go’s December 2023 Community Day event will include a Special Research that gives out some great rewards. Here are all the tasks for the Special Research and the rewards they give.

To cap off 2023, Pokemon Go is hosting a big Community Day celebration event for December. This Community Day event will feature Pokemon that appeared in past CD events throughout 2023.

Additionally, Pokemon featured throughout last year’s CD events—meaning those featured in 2022—will hatch from Eggs, appear in Raids, and as reward encounters through Timed Research.

The December 2023 Community Day event will begin on Saturday, December 16, 2023, and last until Sunday, December 17, 2023, from 2 PM to 5 PM local time. It will also feature an event-exclusive Special research quest, which gives out some great rewards. So, let’s break down that quest.
