The Pokemon Go Season of Legends event is well underway at the moment, with Landorus, Tornadus, and Thundurus appearing in five star raids, along with different Pokemon appearing in the wild and hatching from eggs. This event is focused on Ground-type Pokemon – specifically Nosepass, with the shiny version being introduced to Pokemon Go for the first time – and there are five sets of tasks in total. You do unfortunately need to have caught all three of the aforementioned legendaries to complete the full set of tasks too, so invest in some raid passes if you haven't already. Here are all the Pokemon Go Season of Legends tasks and rewards.

There are five stages to this research and each one follows a similar pattern of catching 10 Pokemon of a specific type, alongside catching weather boosted Pokemon.

Give me a game and I will write every "how to" I possibly can or die trying. When I'm not knee-deep in a game to write guides on, you'll find me hurtling round the track in F1, flinging balls on my phone in Pokemon Go, pretending to know what I'm doing in Football Manager, or clicking on heads in Valorant.
