Pokémon Go is continuing its hype lead-up to the yearly Go Fest event with the “Instrumental Wonders” event that runs from June 7-11.
This event encourages players to raid, with the main perk of this event being an extra 5,000 XP per finished raid. Just like the last event, there will be bonuses with Max Particles as well. You can grab up to 1,600 per day and 800 from Power Spots — which is timed nicely, as Gigantamax Cinderace will be making its debut during the weekend portion of the event.
Below we list the other perks of Pokémon Go’s “Instrumental Wonders” event, including the premium research, Collection Challenges, spawns, and more.
Pokémon Go ‘Instrumental Wonders’ premium Timed Research and reward
Just like the last event, there’s another ticket you can buy for $1.99 to get a Timed Research. If you’re stocking up on raid passes ahead of Go Fest, this ticket is actually a decent buy — so long as you finish the research before the event ends on June 11.
The other thing that may tip the scales in the value of this pass is if you’re shiny hunting for Ferroseed and Falinks, two Pokémon with increased shiny rates during this event. If you want one of those, then this pass ain’t too shabby!
If you complete the research, you’ll also get doubled raid Stardust until the event ends.
