The Rediscover Kanto Special Research is available for free to all Trainers as of April 22, 2024, and you have until May 9, 2024, to begin this particular Special Research.

Take one look at the tasks in Step 5, and you can quickly gather that this Special Research was not meant to be completed any time in the near future. Special Research does not expire, though, so as long as you start it before the Rediscover Kanto Event ends, you'll have as long as you need to complete it!

Interact with your Buddy Pokemon and explore Pokemon GO's new biomes for Kanto Pokemon to complete the Rediscover Kanto Special Research and earn loads of XP, Stardust, and all sorts of useful goodies, including a Lure Module and an Egg Incubator!
