Pokemon Go Diancie Special Research event: Mega Energy, date, rewards

Pokemon Go has announced that Diancie will return to the mobile game in a Global Special Research quest through the World of Wonders season. Here’s everything you need to know about getting this Gen 6 Mythical.

Mythical Pokemon are some of the rarest monsters in Pokemon Go, and that group includes Diancie. The Gen 6 Mythical first debuted during the Go Fest 2023 event.

While trainers around the world did have a brief opportunity to encounter Diancie through the paid Go Fest 2023 ticket, this Rock/Fairy-type has not been available to catch in the mobile game since.

Thankfully, Niantic has announced a new Global Special Research event centering around Diancie, which gives trainers another chance to encounter this Mythical and earn some great rewards along the way.
