Pokémon Go Spring into Spring 2025 Event Guide Research Tasks Bonuses Details

Guides

Spring arrives in Pokémon Go with a burst of new blooms and surprises: the 2025 ‘Spring into Spring’ event welcomes the debut of Gossifleur and Eldegoss, themed days with rotating wild spawns, and a flurry of bonuses-including double candy from hatching eggs, extended Lucky Egg durations, and increased chances to catch shiny Remoraid and Fletchling. Whether you’re chasing exclusive research tasks or hunting for the season’s rarest encounters, this week-long celebration promises fresh adventures for trainers of every level.

During the event, Lucky Eggs will last for twice as long (60 minutes instead of 30), you’ll get doubled candy from hatching eggs, and egg hatch distance is halved when you put them into Incubators during the event. There’s also an increased chance to find shiny Remoraid and Fletchling.

Below we list the other perks for Pokémon Go’s “Spring into Spring” 2025 event, including the premium paid Timed Research, Collection Challenges, and spawns.


Pokémon Go ’Spring in Bloom’ premium Timed Research and rewards

The ’Spring in Bloom’ premium Timed Research for Pokémon Go’s 2025 ‘Spring into Spring’ event is a paid questline available for $1.99 (or local equivalent), offering exclusive tasks and rewards. Players who purchase this research must complete all tasks and claim their rewards before the event ends on April 14, 2025, at 8:00 p.m. local time. The research is split into two main steps: each involves catching Grass, Water, or Fire-type Pokémon, hatching eggs, and using berries to help with catches. Completing these tasks grants encounters with Remoraid and Fletchling, and upon finishing each step, players receive a Gossifleur encounter, Super Incubators, a Lucky Egg, and 5,000 XP. This premium research is a great way to stock up on valuable items and encounter event-themed Pokémon, but it is only worthwhile for those who can finish all tasks before the deadline.

This event only has a paid premium Timed Research for $1.99. While yes, the research is worth it for the coin value (you get two Super Incubators, a Lucky Egg, and a few encounters), I wouldn’t personally buy this unless you really want to stockpile Super Incubators. As a reminder, you’ll need to complete the research before the event ends on April 14 to claim all the rewards.

The tasks and rewards are as follows:

Step 1 of 2

  • Catch 5 grass-, water-, or fire-type Pokémon (Remoraid encounter)
  • Catch 15 grass-, water-, or fire-type Pokémon (Remoraid encounter)
  • Hatch an egg (Remoraid encounter)
  • Use 5 berries to help catch Pokémon (Remoraid encounter)
  • Use 15 berries to help catch Pokémon (Remoraid encounter)

Rewards: Gossifleur encounter, 1 Super Incubator, 5,000 XP

Step 2 of 2

  • Catch 5 grass-, water-, or fire-type Pokémon (Fletchling encounter)
  • Catch 15 grass-, water-, or fire-type Pokémon (Fletchling encounter)
  • Hatch an egg (Fletchling encounter)
  • Use 5 berries to help catch Pokémon (Fletchling encounter)
  • Use 15 berries to help catch Pokémon (Fletchling encounter)

Rewards: Gossifleur encounter, 1 Super Incubator, 1 Lucky Egg


Pokémon Go ’Spring into Spring’ 2025 event Collection Challenges

Pokémon Go’s ‘Spring into Spring’ 2025 event features multiple Collection Challenges, each tied to specific days and themed around different Pokémon types and weather conditions. The Rainy Days Collection Challenge, available from April 9 to 10, tasks players with catching Lotad, Marill, Ducklett, and Dewpider in the wild, rewarding 5,000 XP, 2,500 Stardust, and a Remoraid encounter upon completion. Following this, the Sunny Days Collection Challenge (April 11-12) and Sprouting Days Collection Challenge (April 13-14) focus on fire- and grass-type Pokémon, respectively, with similar rewards that include encounters with Fletchling and other featured Pokémon. Additionally, the Spring into Spring Hatch Challenge requires players to hatch specific Pokémon from eggs, such as Magby, Fletchling, Mantyke, Remoraid, Budew, and Gossifleur, offering an Incubator and a Gossifleur encounter as completion rewards. Completing these challenges not only grants valuable items and Pokémon encounters but also contributes to the Elite Collector Medal, making them a central part of the event’s activities.

The following Collection Challenges will be live during the event, with the specific type-themed ones being live on specific days. We’re not 100% sure what the Collection Challenges are for the later days yet, but it’s likely a similar version, rewarding one of the boosted spawns in exchange for catching the other Pokémon featured on that type’s day.

Spring into Spring Collection Challenge: Rainy Days (April 9-10)

  • Catch a Lotad
  • Catch a Marill
  • Catch a Ducklett
  • Catch a Dewpider

Pokémon Go ’Spring into Spring’ 2025 event Field Research and rewards

During the ’Spring into Spring’ 2025 event, players can complete a variety of Field Research tasks for themed rewards. Spinning PokéStops during the event may yield tasks such as catching three Pokémon of a featured type (water, fire, or grass), with rewards including encounters with Remoraid, Fletchling, or Gossifleur-each with a chance to be shiny-as well as items like Pinap Berries, Great Balls, and Stardust. Additional tasks involve hatching eggs, which can reward encounters with Pikachu or Eevee wearing flower crowns, or the event’s featured Pokémon. These Field Research tasks rotate based on the daily featured Pokémon type, encouraging players to participate throughout the event for a variety of encounters and bonuses.

Spinning a PokéStop during the event period may yield one of these tasks:

  • Hatch an egg (Pikachu [flower crown] or Eevee [flower crown] encounter)
  • Hatch 2 eggs (Remoraid, Fletchling, or Gossifleur encounter)

There’s also a rotating task that requires you to catch three of whatever type is being featured currently. According to LeekDuck, it can reward a Remoraid encounter, 500 Stardust, two Pinap Berries, or five Great Balls. It may reward other Pokémon encounters as the daily type changes (presumably Fletchling when it’s the fire days and Gossifleur when it’s the grass days, but we can’t confirm that yet).

How can I maximize my shiny Pokémon chances during Spring into Spring 2025

Maximizing Shiny Pokémon Chances During Spring into Spring 2025

Focus on Boosted Shinies

  • Remoraid and Fletchling have specifically increased shiny odds during this event, making them your top targets for shiny hunting.

Strategies to Maximize Encounters

  • Grind wild encounters as much as possible, since every encounter is an independent shiny roll. The more Pokémon you check, the higher your odds-especially for Remoraid and Fletchling, which are featured in the wild and in eggs.

  • Play during event hours and in areas with high spawn density (parks, popular PokeStop clusters) to maximize the number of encounters per hour.

Utilize Event Bonuses

  • Take advantage of the event’s half egg hatch distance and increased hatch candy. Hatching event eggs (especially 2 km eggs, which include Remoraid, Fletchling, and Gossifleur) lets you check more Pokémon for shinies in less time.

  • Use Super Incubators to hatch more eggs quickly, further increasing your shiny chances from eggs.

Participate in Special Raids and Research

  • Engage in any event-exclusive raids or Field Research tasks, as these sometimes have boosted shiny rates or feature event Pokémon with increased odds.

  • Check for any Research Day or Raid Day events during Spring into Spring, which can offer shiny rates as high as 1 in 10 to 1 in 20 for featured Pokémon.

Additional Tips

  • Mega Evolve Pokémon that boost the spawn rates of your target types (Water, Fire, Grass) to get extra candy and possibly more encounters.

  • Use the quick catch trick to save time and check more Pokémon per hour.

Summary Table: Shiny Odds and Methods

Method Typical Shiny Odds Event Relevance
Wild Encounters 1 in 450 (base) Remoraid, Fletchling boosted
Event Eggs Variable, often higher Remoraid, Fletchling in 2 km eggs
Special Research/Raid Days 1 in 10 to 1 in 20 If featured during event

Prioritize Remoraid and Fletchling, maximize your encounters through wild spawns and egg hatching, and take full advantage of event bonuses and special research to boost your shiny haul during Spring into Spring 2025.

How do shiny odds during Spring into Spring compare to other events

Shiny Odds: Spring into Spring 2025 vs. Other Pokémon GO Events

Spring into Spring 2025

  • Only Remoraid and Fletchling have explicitly boosted shiny rates during the event; all other Pokémon appear to have standard odds.

  • For most wild and egg spawns, the shiny odds remain at the usual base rate (typically 1 in 450 for wild encounters), unless otherwise specified.

Comparison to Other Events

Event Type Typical Shiny Odds Notes
Spring into Spring (2025) 1 in 450 (base, most) Only Remoraid & Fletchling noted as boosted
Community Day 1 in 25 Substantially boosted for featured Pokémon
Raid Day/Hatch Day 1 in 10 For select featured Pokémon in raids/eggs
Legendary Raids 1 in 20 For legendary Pokémon in raids
GO Fest/Tour (In-person) 1 in 64 Applies to most event spawns
GO Fest/Tour (Global ticketed) 1 in 128 For ticket holders in global events
Standard (non-event) 1 in 450 (wild) Usual non-event shiny odds

Summary

  • Spring into Spring 2025 offers only modest shiny boosts, limited to Remoraid and Fletchling, with odds for all other Pokémon remaining at standard rates.

  • Major events like Community Days, Raid Days, and in-person GO Fest/Tour events provide much higher shiny rates for featured Pokémon.

  • If your goal is maximizing shiny encounters, Spring into Spring is less lucrative than these larger, dedicated shiny-boost events.
