Pokemon GO Catch Mastery Event Timed Research: All tasks and rewards

The first event of Season 10, Rising Heroes, is slowly coming online worldwide in Pokemon GO, with certain Fighting-type pocket monsters and their shiny variants slated to appear more frequently in the wild. The Catch Mastery Event will also feature an event-exclusive Timed Research quest that will center around the trainer's proficiency in throwing Poke Balls.

The season of Rising Heroes began in Pokemon GO, bringing seasonal rotations to Research Breakthrough encounters, wild spawns and egg hatches, new features, and plenty more. But the community's reaction to the offerings has been one of disappointment. It remains to be seen whether Niantic will address the same sometime soon.

This article jots down all the available information regarding the Catch Mastery Event Timed Research task and the rewards that Pokemon GO players will get to complete and unlock during the occasion.
