Pokémon GO Dratini Community Day – Special Research Challenges

Get your own green Dragonite!

November is slated for plenty of events in Pokémon GO and the Dratini Community Day Classic is one of the first major weekend specials for the month. What’s even more exciting is that this weekend is only the first of two Community Days set for November in the Season of Light.

Like every Community Day before it, the Dratini day will have a handful of Special Research challenges designed to give players easy access to evolutions and candies. To access the Special Research instead of the occasional Timed Research, you’ll need the $1 ticket and you keep the Research until it’s completed. In this guide, we’ll go over all four steps of the Classic event and the rewards involved.
