✨ New Update — Research Tasks & Easter Crate! ✨
Two more new systems are live today — Research Tasks reward you for interacting with every Pokemon species (with permanent shiny rate boosts and Galaxy Ranks), and a limited-edition Easter Crate with 15 exclusive skins is now open.
🔬 Research Tasks
A brand new progression system that rewards you for interacting with Pokemon species in different ways. Think of it like an advanced Pokedex — but with actual rewards.
How it works: Use /arceustasks species <pokemon> to see the available research tasks for any species, or open the GUI to browse.
Task types include:
- Catching, defeating, evolving, and feeding specific Pokemon
- Using certain move types in battle
- Catching Pokemon at specific times of day (morning, evening, night)
- Catching Pokemon while airborne
- Obtaining different forms
Each task has tiered milestones (catch 1, then 3, then 5, then 10, etc.) — the more you do, the more Research Points you earn.
Why bother?
- Completing all research for a species rewards you with cash and a permanent 1.2x Shiny Rate boost for that species — and it stacks across every species you complete
- Research Points unlock Galaxy Ranks — 11 ranks from First Star all the way up to Full Star, each with escalating rewards:
- Early ranks give Poke Balls, Great Balls, cash
- Mid ranks give Rare Candies, Mints, Ultra Balls
- Top ranks give Ability Patches, Gold Bottlecaps, Lucky Eggs, Exp Shares, and up to ₽50,000
Use /arceustasks ranks to check your current rank and see what's next.
