Paldea Research
Prof. Sada and Prof. Turo visited Emera Town on 30th August 2023 to invite everyone on a journey through time.
In this quest the Professors need your help to study Pokémon, so Shiny hunting is a distraction and as the quest has no time-limit, you can just finish the current hunt before starting to help them with the research.
First you need to choose which path you would like to explore frist. Help Prof. Seda on the Path of Nostalgia or Prof. Turo on the Path of Anticipation.
After a path is chosen it can not be changed until the research is finished.
Note: The legendary Pokémon you might obtain in this quest can only be traded with trainers who also own their EggDex entries.
Paradox Research
From the 1st of July to the 31st of August 2024 the Professors were back and asked for your help with their research again.
