Pokémon Go: The light festival wants to convince with new quests - I just find them disappointing

A winter season light festival is among numerous annual events arranged in various part of the globe and among various societies, to celebrate completion of the winter and the start of the light seasons with art workshops, light designs, live music as well as road food. Initially, this type of party had a religious as well as spiritual meaning, to commemorate the end of the dark period of the year as well as the beginning of the days of light. Nowadays, these events have actually shed the spiritual definition to leave a lot more space to the consumeristic facet.

Inpokémon Go is today, on 05. November 2021, a new event started: the light festival. Just in time for start, there are 8 special field research tasks again. We from Meinmmo show you the quests and their rewards and our author Franzi Korittke explains why they are disappointed by the tasks.

Which quest is? As you know it from the past from other events, there is also new field research tasks again to the light festival. This gets you by turning the Pokéstop. The respective tasks are displayed in the category Field, in which you enter a click on the binoculars in your map view.

When will the event take place? The light festival in Pokémon Go runs from 05. November 2021 at 10:00 o clock local time until 14 November 2021 at 20:00 local time. During this time you have the opportunity to collect the special quests. For the processing you have no time limit, you can thus complete this after the end of the event.

These are the 8 new quests to the light festival

During the light festival, you can encounter a total of 8 new quests that give you to the reward items or various encounters with Pokémon. Below we have summarized the new field research with the help of LeekDuck s overview (via LeekDuck / RedDit):

All Pokémon, which you can also encounter in your dazzling version, we have marked with a ( ).

That s why I find the quests so disappointing

Normally, the new event quests always bring one or the other interesting monsters with themselves what they are not so easy outside of these quests. However, the yield is negligible at this event.

The reason for this are the spawns. Almost any of these monsters is to get during the light festival anyway in the wilderness or by RAIDs. That makes the field research tasks for me rather uninteresting and ensures disappointment.

And even the encounters per se do not really tear me from the stool. I have been playing Pokémon Go for more than 2 years now and have collected some specimens in abundance in case through community days and other events. These include elektk and Magmar, which had their day last year.

For this reason, I will leave the field research rather left during this event. But I think there are also coaches for which one or the other quest could be worthwhile.

For whom could the quests be interesting?

In my view, the tasks are more suitable for coaches, which are not yet with Pokémon Go. You should look for these quests especially after the strong Pokémon. But also for Shiny hunters or to solve older specialized research, the research tasks offer.

The research tasks are all relatively easy to solve and thus also feasible in a short time. Only the power-ups are connected to the use of a bit of star dust.

Strong specimens

Among other things, strong copies of these research includes the electro- and steel Pokémon Magnetilo, which can evolve to magnetic zone. Magnet zone is in turn to the best attackers in Pokémon Go.

The same applies to elektk. It is also its further development Elevoltek ranks in the list of the best electrical attackers. With strong fire-Pokémon, however, you should orientize the flampion. His further development Flampivian is one of the best fire attackers after Reshiram and Skelabra.

And in the Go-Kampfliga, Magnetzone and Elevoltek are suitable candidates, especially in the hyper and master league (via pvpoke.com). So you are looking for a strong copy for RAIDs or the PVP fights you should rely on these monsters.

Other reasons to use the quests

The new Pokémon: Of course you will also receive the new electric and fairy-Pokémon Dedenne in the tasks. So if you can not get enough of this monster enough, you should use your chance. Why the coaches Dedenne love so much, we explain to you in the following article:

Solve old quests: Last year, there was a special research to the Great Community Day in December 2020, where you should catch a certain number of elektk and Magmar.

If you have not completely solved these tasks, you can come to this path to the two monsters without having to spend expensive RAID passes. The tasks are easy and quick to solve.

Shiny hunter: And of course, Shiny hunters come to their money s worth with these quests. So if you are looking for a dazzling copy, you can also try his luck on this way. Apart from Dedenne and Lepeno, all other monsters are also available in their Shiny version.

How do you find the new quests to the light festival? Do you also find them so boring and disappointing as I or will you get you one or the other monster from it? Write us your opinion here on Meinmmo in the comments and exchanges you with other coaches. The light festival brings you next to the new quests also the next parts for Hoopa research. We have summarized the tasks 13 and 14 for the special research Misidenced Schabernback.
