I normally like research days. But the problem is, you’re always completely limited by how many Pokestops there are near you.

But I think Niantic have finally hit the nail on the head with the Snubbull research event. All you need to do is (mostly) catch Pokemon. Unlike previous research events, research for Snubbull is given to you directly, with a set of 3 tasks and a reward. Once you have done those 3 tasks and collected your rewards, then move on to 3 more tasks. Each task rewards you with a Snubbull,… [Continue Reading]
