Diancie Is Now Available For All Trainers In Pokémon GO

A free Diancie enouncter? Another shot at obtaining a Master Ball? Pokémon GO has announced new Special and Masterwork Research quests.

Formerly a GO Fest 2024 exclusive species, Diance has now been released for all Pokémon GO Trainers through Special Research. This Mythical Pokémon can Mega Evolve as well, so those looking to fill out their Mega Dex will do well to complete this questline. Let's get into the details.

Niantic writes:

The Special Research story Glitz and Glam [is available to all Trainers for free.] Trainers who complete the Special Research will earn an encounter with the Mythical Pokémon Diancie.* This Special Research will not expire, so you'll be able to complete it at your own pace! *If you have already accessed the Pokémon GO Fest 2023–exclusive Special Research, completing this new Special Research will instead earn you Diancie Candy.

In addition to this, we also have confirmation of a new Master Ball-themed Masterwork Research. It will debut as part of the Catching Wonders event, which will last from Tuesday, May 14, at 10:00 a.m. to Sunday, May 19, 2024, at 8:00 p.m. local time. Niantic posted the following about the event:

This event is bringing you free Masterwork Research! Trainers who complete the research will receive a Master Ball as one of the rewards. Additional rewards include Stardust, XP, Berries, encounters with Pokémon, and more! Masterwork Research is intended to be completed over a long period of time.* Receiving a rare and powerful Master Ball is a special occasion—think wisely about how you'll use it, and keep a lookout for future opportunities in Pokémon GO to acquire more!
