The Timed Research launches in your local area on June 1 at 10am and is available for you to work on through until June 4. However, this is a Timed Research, which means if you miss your chance to finish all the tasks before time runs out, the research disappears. You want to act quickly for multiple opportunities to catch an Emolga in Pokémon Go, but the shiny version will continue to have a chance to appear any time you encounter one in the wild.

For this Timed Research, there’s only one set of tasks you need to worry about for Glide to Victory. These tasks involve walking around and exploring your local area while playing Pokémon Go, which is perfect for completing over a weekend.

Many of the Glide to Victory Timed Research rewards involve getting Emolga encounters. The next focus for anyone with a perfect Emolga in their collection is to encounter a Shiny one. The Stadium Sights event offers the best chance for this. After this, expect it to be much more difficult to find a Shiny while playing Pokémon Go.

Although Emolga might not be the strongest Pokémon in a standard battle league competition, it’s a decent choice in the more niche categories. Several Pokémon Go players reserve a powerful Emolga when they want to compete in the Electric, Color, Holiday, Jungle or Little Jungle, and the upcoming Summer cups. These are all good reasons to have a strong Emolga in your pocket.

These tasks and rewards await you while working through the Glide to Victory Timed Research in Pokémon Go.
