↖ Exclusive Research Tasks

The Valorous Hero event will also have exclusive research tasks.

You can complete field research tasks to get a shiny Ponyta, some stardust, revives, or hyper potions.

There will also be a special research task that rewards a Ponyta with a little costume that can be shiny.

Finally, you can complete a timed research task during the event that will reward you with a fast TM and a regular charge TM.

 

↖ Best Wild Spawns

Although there won't be any specific wild spawns during the Valorous Hero event, spawns will convert to the season spawns.

You can see the different spawns that will appear in different areas of the world during the season of rising heroes.

Togekiss, Gardevoir, Trubbish, Exeggutor, Unova's Stunfisk, Morelull, Aerodactyl, Snorlax, Malamar, Aggron, Medicham, Slowbro, Mantine, Blueno, Frillish, and Goomy are among the Pokémon that will be available during the event.

Some of these Pokémon will be spawning more in cities versus mountains versus near the water, so be mindful of that.

 

↖ Best Raids

During the event, there aren't many great Pokémon available in one-star raids.

However, you can find some great Pokémon in three-star raids, such as Galarian Stunfisk, Druddigon, Braviary, and Heatmor.

In five-star raids, Tapu Fini is a great choice. Mega raids feature the new Mega Pinsir, which is also great.

 

↖ Bonuses

The two times catch candy and two times chance of getting an XL candy for trainers above level 31 are the main bonuses during the event.

This is a great opportunity to catch more Pokémon and get more candy and XL candy for them.
