Prior to Pokémon Go Fest 2020, the developers of Pokémon Go have activated three Temporary Research Challenges that can be completed in a limited time period. The third, the Go Fest: Friendship Challenge, will be active from July 17, 2020 to July 22, 2020. You can find out which bonuses are active for the Go-Fest: Friendship Challenge and which steps you have to complete in our guide.
Final spurt in the limited research for Pokémon Go Fest 2020! You can still complete the Go Fest: Battle Challenge research until July 15, 2020 at 22:00, and then the Go Fest: Friendship Challenge research will be activated on July 17, 2020 at 08:00. You can then complete the three steps of this time-limited research until July 22, 2020 at 22:00, before the actual Pokémon Go Fest 2020 starts the following Saturday.

Since this Temporary Research coincides with the Summer Event in Pokémon Go, there are some additional goodies, such as Lilminip appearing in the wild. Below is the overview of them:
- Summer Pokémon appear in the wild, hatch from eggs, and show up in Raid battles. If you’re lucky, you may even encounter Iridescent Knofensa!
- Lilminip appears for the first time in Pokémon GO! It appears in the wild in sunny weather and hatches from 5-km eggs.
- In addition, Pikachu appear in the wilderness, perfectly prepared for summer!
- Take a snapshot during the event – you may be in for a surprise.
As mentioned earlier, the following dates are of interest to you: the Go Fest: Friendship Challenge will start on July 17, 2020 at 08:00 and end on July 22, 2020 at 22:00. The Temporary Research itself will again include three steps, and as part of that you’ll be rewarded with encounters with ALoLa Raichu and Lilminip, as well as a Lucky Egg. Then, as an additional step, there’s the Go Fest: Top Friendship Challenge.

Pokémon GO
Pokémon Go is the mobile spin-off of Nintendo’s popular Pokémon game series for Android and iOS. It is a so-called “location-based game”, i.e. a game that uses the player’s immediate surroundings. It is based on the principle of augmented reality.
Pokémon Map: Between landmarks and sights
Pokémon Go uses a Global Positioning System (GPS) to determine the player’s location and displays it on a map that also represents the playing field. The map is based on OpenStreetMap maps. The game is played mostly outdoors and uses landmarks, landmarks and other notable or eye-catching objects in the world to position either PokéStops or arenas there for you to battle for supremacy. Join either Team Intuition (Team Yellow, Zapdos), Team Wisdom (Team Blue, Arktos), or Team Daring (Team Red, Lavados). Under their flag you can then fight for the arenas, which are placed at hotspots like churches or similar. Pokémon can appear anywhere, though.
Pocket monsters visible on the Pokémon Go Map are randomly loaded into the game’s virtual map by the game server. If several players are playing in the same location, each player can see and catch the Pokémon independently of the others.
Pokémon Go Updates, News, Raids and More
The developers at Niantic regularly provide Pokémon Go with new updates or special raids that should only be tackled in a group of several people. The Pokémon Go Raids are therefore very popular, as they also offer the prospect of particularly rare Pokémon. For example, in the past, legendary Pokémon could always be caught on special occasions (Pokémon Go events). For particularly eager mobile or smartphone Pokémon trainers, there is also an external IV calculator, such as the online tool from Pokemon.gameinfo.io or on Pokefans.net, to check the values of your Pokémon.
