Pokemon Go Starry Skies Special Research Branching Quest Storyline

Trainers, the next event in Pokemon Go starts this weekend, and you can complete the new Special Research featuring Cosmog.

The Starry Skies is a new Special Research introduced in Pokemon Go as part of the Solstice Horizons event. Pokemon Go players can complete two different Collection Challenges, Daytime, and Nighttime. Players can also encounter different Pokemon during the Day and Night in the wild, enjoy the event-exclusive bonuses, and complete the free Special Research for one Cosmog. You can also play through the Special Research for a second time ($5) and get a second Cosmog.

Pokemon Go players can get two Cosmog this event, one for free and the other via pay-to-play Special Research. The Starry Skies Research offers different rewards such as Stardust, Ultra Balls, and encounters with Galarian Slowpoke, Starmie, Metang, and Inkay. Players must play during the specified time to receive all the special event bonuses.

The Starry Skies Special Research has four steps, and players can choose different paths. Yes, that’s right, there are branching quests one must complete and choose a path.

%PLAYERNAME%, great timing!

I just got back from a harrowing expedition. I’ll spare you the gritty details, but it involved boulders, quicksand, and lots of Venipede.

Anyway, I’ve come out on the other side with some exciting treasures: fossils, King’s Rocks, and a trove of maps!

It’s hard to determine who or what left the maps behind, especially given their contents. For example, this one apparently leads to “the world’s tastiest Poffin.”

There was one in particular that caught my eye: a map of the skies showing the exact position of the stars today!

It made me wonder if this is a purely informational map, or if it points toward something special.

What do you say we find out together?

Seeing as the stars are our inspiration, how about we focus on either diurnal Pokemon – meaning Pokemon that are active during the day – or their opposite, nocturnal Pokemon?

Take some time to think about which Pokemon you’re more interested in researching. Once you’ve decided, we can set off!
