Another Saturday, another Community Day for Pokémon Go players. This time it’s a Community Day Classic throwback that features Swinub, a special move for Mamoswine, and plenty of research tasks to complete.

For this event, Swinub is appearing more frequently in the wild from 2pm to 5pm local time on April 29. Players will also have an increased chance of finding a Shiny Swinub too.

Players will get the usual event bonuses of triple Catch Stardust and Incense and Lures lasting for a full three hours—meaning you only need to use one to get the effects for the entire Community Day. Any Mamoswine you evolve or catch during the event will also know the Charged Attack, Ancient Power.

The main event, outside of catching a ton of Swinub, is the event-exclusive research that is available. This includes a $1 ticketed Special Research story, though there is plenty of other content for anyone who doesn’t want to purchase it.

Here are all of the research tasks and rewards featured during the Swinub Community Day Classic.
