All Psychic Spectacular Special Research, event-exclusive Field Research tasks and rewards in Pokémon Go

One type, a lot of content.

From a triple-typing focus down to just one, the Pokémon Go Psychic Spectacular event is starting to roll out.

With this, players will see a drastic increase in the number of Psychic-type Pokémon spawning in the wild, hatching from Eggs, and available to battle in raids. 

Not only will certain Pokémon be appearing more often, but Inkay will also be making its Pokémon Go debut during the event, with a similarly strange evolution condition to the one it uses in the main series. There is also a new addition to the season-long Misunderstood Mischief Special Research too. 

So if you plan on delving into the topsy-turvy event, here are all of the research tasks and rewards that will be live during the Psychic Spectacular.
