Trainers who participated in late July's GO Fest 2021 celebration came together across the world to annihilate every global challenge that the massive event had to offer this year. Thanks to all of that hard work, all of the possible Ultra Unlock reward events were activated and Pokemon GO trainers now are able to enjoy more than three weeks of exciting reward perks. The first Ultra Unlock has concluded and now it's time for players to start focusing on the Space-themed second event.
Ultra Unlock Reward event two is Space-themed and starts today, August 6. Now that the event is live in Pokemon GO, players can enjoy a ton of exciting features and battle against Palkia in Legendary raids for a chance at a shiny encounter. There is also some limited timed research to complete, so many trainers should be out and about crossing tasks off of their list during the event window.

In addition to the Space-themed Timed Research chain that trainers can work to complete between now and August 17, there is also the opportunity to find some event-specific Field Research tasks by spinning Pokestops in the wild. There are some pretty strong event-related encounter and item rewards, so trainers on the hunt for both versions of Shellos, Lunatone, or Solrock will want to be sure to keep an eye out for these particular tasks throughout the next week or so…
Catch 15 Pokémon – Staryu Encounter
Make 5 Curveball Throws – Lunatone Encounter or Solrock Encounter
Make 7 Great Curveball Throws – Shellos Encounter or Shellos Encounter
Spin 10 Poké Stops or Gyms – Poke Ball Poke Ball * 10
Transfer 5 Pokémon – Pinap Berry Pinap Berry * 3
Just like the Time event, this is a short list of Field Research, but keep in mind that these rewards can be earned multiple times per day if players can find various Pokestops that are offering these challenges. Even though players can only earn one Field Research stamp towards their Breakthrough Encounter per day, it's still wise to complete multiple Field Tasks everyday if players are out and about anyway and there are rewards on the table that are worth the effort. Hatching an Egg and winning a Raid in under 60 seconds are fairly common accomplishments for the average player, so it definitely makes sense to keep an eye out for those two quests and complete them as often as possible for any player who is trying to rack up the typically location/space controlled encounters during this event.
In the coming weeks, we should learn more about what other events will be arriving during the rest of the Season of Discovery. Be sure to check back in the near future for more Pokemon GO strategy guides, news, and updates. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!
