Don’t Miss Keldeo — Complete These Pokémon Go “Tales of Transformation” Tasks Before Dec. 2
Pokémon Go’s new season, “Tales of Transformation,” brings a limited-time Special Research that leads to an encounter with Keldeo — and later in the season you’ll be able to change it to its Resolute Form for the first time in the game. Be aware: the research must be claimed during the season, which runs until Dec. 2, though once you start it you have unlimited time to finish.
- What this is: a season-limited Special Research that awards a Keldeo encounter (and cosmetics and Candy).
- Current content: the first two steps are live now; more steps will roll out as the season progresses.
- Must-know rewards: Keldeo encounter, Keldeo T-Shirt cosmetic, Candy and Candy XL; alternate Candy if you already own Keldeo.

This step of the Special Research is not available yet. Niantic will unlock the remaining steps as the season progresses, and this guide will be updated once the next tasks appear.
Finally, remember to open Pokémon Go and start the Special Research before Dec. 2 if you want to claim it — otherwise you won’t be able to pick it up when the season ends. Once started, though, you can take your time completing the steps.
