As part of Pokémon Go Fest 2023: Global, there’s a new special research focused on dancy And Mega Raycusa For players who purchased a Go Fest 2023 ticket.

On Saturday, players were able to obtain Diancie Special Research and on Sunday they were able to start Mega Rayquaza Special Research. Players who have not purchased a Go Fest ticket have access to a shorter Special Research pool that rewards Meteorite, but does not grant as many rewards as Paid Search. You must complete the usual “Sky High” quest to unlock the paid version. Since these are special quests and not timed quests, they are permanently available once unlocked, so you can take your time completing them.

To perform the search below, you need to purchase a Pokémon Go Fest 2023 ticket for $14.99. If you haven’t purchased it, Diancie will be available to you at a later time, but you’ll have to wait.

You can see all the steps for private research and rewards below, with help from Serebii.net.
