Pokemon Go Elite Raid: Mega Rayquaza Timed Research tasks & rewards

Pokemon Go’s Mega Rayquaza Elite Raid Day event offers trainers the chance to take on a Timed Research quest to earn some helpful rewards for the Dragon/Flying-type Legendary.

Mega Rayquaza, which was first introduced in Generation 6’s Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, is the focus for the next round of Elite Raids.

As Pokemon Go players are well aware, Elite Raids are some of the hardest content in the game. Trainers will need to know exactly what they’re doing to take on these difficult Mega Rayquaza raids.

For a little extra bonus during the event, Niantic is offering trainers the chance to complete a Timed Research quest that grants a Meteorite. This helpful item is invaluable for Mega Rayquaza, so let’s go over how to complete each task of this Timed Research so you can earn your rewards.

This Timed Research quest is a free, event-exclusive quest. This means that trainers won’t have to purchase any additional tickets to gain access to it.
