To complete the Pidgey Pandemonium Research in Pokemon GO, you must finish all of the tasks in step 1 and then claim the rewards in step 2.
This Research can be claimed from 3:00 PM to 11:59 PM local time on April 1, 2023, and is very easy to complete. All it takes is catching and transferring 10 Pokemon and making 5 Nice Throws!
Luckily, one of the Pokemon GO April Fool’s Day event bonuses is additional Pidgey spawning in the wild, so they’ll be even more common than usual!
Plus, there will be an increased chance of finding XXS and XXL-sized Pidgey – if, for whatever reason, you are desperate for a Pidgey that is a bit bigger or smaller than usual.
