How A Poni Adventure works in Pokémon Go

A Poni Adventure was released as part of 2022’s Season of Alola and can be unlocked by simply playing Pokémon Go before Wednesday, 1st June.

It’s the fourth in a set of four special research quests themed around the Alola region - of which A Melemele Adventure, An Akala Adventure and An Ula’ula Adventure have already been released.

By completing all four special research quests before Wednesday, 1st June, you’ll obtain free access to an end-of-season event for the Season of Alola.

A Poni Adventure has no deadline, so, keeping the Wednesday 1st June deadline in mind, you can complete it at your leisure.

A Poni adventure consists of four quest steps and, like most Pokémon Go research quests, you must complete three challenges for each step, collecting the rewards as you progress.

Good luck completing A Poni Adventure in Pokémon Go!
