All event-exclusive Today’s View Timed Research tasks and rewards for Pokémon Go’s Ultra Unlock Part 3: Sword and Shield

The final bonus week is here.

The Ultra Unlock bonuses that were unlocked as part of Pokémon Go Fest 2021 are coming to an end, but Niantic is sending them off by introducing more Pokémon from Sword and Shield to the game.

Ultra Unlock Part Three: Sword and Shield will feature a handful of new Pokémon native to Galar appearing from Aug. 20 to 31, including Falinks, Wooloo, Zacian, and Zamazenta. 

Every Pokémon featured in the event, outside of the odd Unown, appears in the generation eight games on Nintendo Switch. Several were already available in the game, but some like Galarian Meowth, Galarian Farfetch’d, and Galarian Weezing will now be available as shinies too.
