How does A Mystic Hero work in Pokémon Go

A Mystic Hero is a special research quest in Pokémon Go, which means you’re free to complete it slowly or rush through for the rewards.

This quest became available on Thursday, 13th April at 10am (local time) as part of the A Mystic Hero event. Due to being part of said event, we, at the time of writing, don’t know whether it will be available once it ends. For this reason, we recommend playing Pokémon Go at least once during the A Mystic Hero event to ensure you’ve unlocked the special research quest which shares its name.

Putting this aside, A Mystic Hero works exactly the same as other special research quests in Pokémon Go; you’re challenged to complete a series of tasks in return for rewards and, after doing so, you unlock the quest step’s overall rewards along with the following step. You then repeat this process until the quest is completed.

Good luck finishing the A Mystic Hero special research!
