Pokémon GO players from the Americas and Greenland successfully complete 2.5 million research tasks for Professor Willow’s Global Research Challenge

June 30, 2018 6:06 pm

The first event in Professor Willow’s Global Research Challenge is now underway in Dortmund, Germany, during the Pokémon GO Safari Zone event from June 30 to July 1. While there is plenty to do in the Dortmund area during this free event, such as encountering Unown and Corsola throughout Westfalenpark and Raid Battles happening around the city, Trainers worldwide will be able to join in the fun. In addition to completing Field Research tasks provided by Professor Willow, Trainers all over the world are now seeing increased appearances of the Grass- and Poison-type Pokémon originally discovered in the Hoenn region, Roselia. For the first time, players now have a chance at catching Shiny Roselia sprouting purple flowers.

Professor Willow’s Global Challenge participants on June 30 and July 1 will also be able to unlock special bonuses, including another chance to encounter the Legendary Articuno. If all tasks are successfully completed during the Pokémon GO Safari Zone in Dortmund, a special Articuno and Shiny Articuno Day event will take place on July 7. Participants will receive five free Raid Passes and Articuno will appear as a Raid Boss at Pokémon GO Gyms for three hours. Niantic has confirmed that there’s a chance it will be Shiny Articuno during this period. Pokémon GO Safari Zone Dortmund Research Tasks and rewards from July 2 to July 9 are as follows:

Three new Pokémon GO boxes are now available to purchase via the in-game store:

Professor Willow’s Global Challenge recently kicked off in the Asia-Pacific region, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, India, the Americas and Greenland. Niantic encourages all players to work together with Trainers in your region to unlock the special bonuses for everyone around the world. The developer is also running a digital tour of Dortmund as part of a Pokémon GO AR Safari on Instagram. Corsola, Unown and other Pokémon found within Westfalenpark can also be caught all throughout the City of Dortmund.

Pokémon GO players from the Asia-Pacific region have already completed five million research tasks and unlocked the one-hour Lucky Egg global bonus, which will be available from July 2 to July 9. Due to capacity issues, Niantic is encouraging fans to explore the City of Dortmund rather than visiting Westfalenpark to catch Pokémon and spin PokéStops for 2 km Eggs. The developer has also confirmed a widespread log-in issue that displays the “Failed to get game data from the server” error message when attempting to log into the game. Meanwhile, Pokémon GO Safari Zone participants in Dortmund have already collectively completed 50,000 research tasks and are now more than halfway to unlocking the 3× catch XP global bonus. Wild Roselia and Shiny Roselia are also now appearing in the German Rosarium at Westfalenpark. Niantic is now asking players to avoid using Incense at the Pokémon GO Safari Zone in Dortmund as it attempts to resolve all log-in issues. Players from Europe, the Middle East, Africa and India have finished 2.5 million research tasks, which means there are only 2.5 million more until they unlock the 2× Raid XP bonus for everyone.

With day one of the Pokémon GO Safari Zone in Dortmund officially coming to a close, Niantic has announced that a Europe-wide event will take place “later this week” for the benefit of users who may have been impacted by today’s issues. Trainers from the Americas and Greenland have just completed 2.5 million research tasks:
