Niantic has announced that the next season of Pokemon GO will kick off on June 1 and last until September 1. It’s called the Season of Hidden Gems, and during these three months, fans can look forward to tons of new events, new Pokemon, Raid Battles, and much more. One of the first events trainers can prepare for is the Searching for Gold Research Day.

Updated on June 2, 2023: The Timed Research and Field Research Tasks have gone live in some regions, so we’ve added them to the bottom of our Pokemon GO Searching for Gold event guide.
