Pokemon GO I've Got Your Back Timed Research: All tasks and rewards

With Ultra Unlock: Paldea coming online in Pokemon GO, players can choose to participate in the event-exclusive Timed Research, I've Got Your Back, by buying the ticket from the in-game shop. Apart from in-game resources and encounters with a certain Gen IX Pocket Monster, the questline will allow trainers to get their hands on an exciting avatar item before it arrives for others.

Ultra Unlock: Paldea begins on Sunday, September 10, 2023, at 10 am local time and will run until Friday, September 15, 2023, at 8 pm local time. It continues after A Paldean Adventure event, which saw the release of Paldea Starters — Fuecoco, Sprigatito, and Quaxly — into the game.
