Noelle Corbett

Niantic is giving Pokemon Go players another chance to get Diancie with the free Glitz and Glam Special Research. Here’s everything to know about the tasks and rewards.

Pokemon Go is making the Mythical Pokemon Diancie more widely available with the free Glitz and Glam Special Research event. Starting on May 1, players will be able to access a new set of quests, and the reward for completing them all is the Jewel Pokemon itself.

Though Diancie debuted during Pokemon Go Fest 2023, this rare and powerful Rock/Fairy Type has not been available since.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Glitz and Glam Special Research tasks and what you’ll need to do to get Diancie.
