How to get the Field Notes Deino Special Research story

If you want to take part in the Field Notes Deino Special Research story, you’ll need to purchase a ticket from the in-game shop for $1 (£0.79) or the equivalent price in your local currency.

The ticket needs to be purchased before the Deino Community Day event is over, when it will leave the shop, but it’s best to purchase it in advance so you’ll have the whole three-hour event to complete it.

You can still complete the Field Notes Deino Special Research story once the event is over, but it will be much easier to finish during the Community Day as most tasks will include catching or evolving Deino.
