It’s that time of the year once again: The annual Pokémon Go Halloween event has come and set the stage for the spookiest creatures the series has to offer. Naturally, this traditional event wouldn’t be complete without a bunch of missions trainers can complete in order to obtain some rewards. While the Ticket of Treats Timed Research tasks have been available for a while now, additional Timed Research tasks have been added at the start of Halloween Part 1 and with the beginning of Part 2.

Here are all Pokémon Go Halloween 2023 Part 1 and 2 Timed Research tasks.
