Pokémon Go’s “Dual Destiny” season has begun, lasting from Dec. 3 until March 4, 2025. This means that there’s a new set of Special Research to complete, though all the steps won’t be immediately available. The steps will likely be themed around different events that occur during the season, so while you may only be able to do a few now, the rest will unlock later.
To unlock this research, you just need to login during the season. Once it’s started, you’ll have an unlimited amount of time to finish it — even after the season ends in March.
The “Dual Destiny” season has shifted spawns, added new Pokémon to find in Max Battles, and changed research breakthroughs as well (though, yes, Furfrou is still in the pool).
Steps one and two of the “Dual Destiny” research was added as part of the “Not My Cup of Tea” event, alongside the release of Sinistea.
Below, we list the “Dual Destiny” Special Research steps that are currency available.
