Pokémon Go Shared Skies research quest steps and rewards
Our guide to the Shared Skies research quest.
The Shared Skies timed research quests in Pokémon Go are releasing once a month during the Season of Shared Skies, for a total of three Seasonal timed research quests until the end of the season.
The Shares Skies research works a little differently to recent Season-long quests in Pokémon Go. Due to its time-gated nature, you have to complete each part before its specific end date within the Shared Skies season, unlike previous Seasonal quests that gave you until the end of a Season to complete all of its steps.
To help you keep track of it all, we've detailed all of the Shared Skies quest steps and rewards in Pokémon Go below.

How Shared Skies works in Pokémon Go
Shared Skies is the Season-long timed research for, unsurprisingly, the Season of Shared Skies in Pokémon Go.
Shared Skies Part 3 started on Thursday 1st August, 2024. As it's a three-part timed research quest, you must complete each part of Shared Skies before its specific end date within the Shared Skies Season in order to get all of its rewards. For example, Shared Skies Part 2 runs until 11.59pm (local time) on Tuesday 10th September, so you must complete it before this time, or you will miss out on Part 1's rewards.
There have been a total of three Shared Skies timed research quests during the Season of Shared Skies: one in June, one in July and one in August.
Outside of these time restrictions, Shared Skies works exactly the same as any other research quest in Pokémon Go where you must complete a series of challenges, collecting rewards as you go, until you've completed a quest step. At this point, you can earn the rewards for the overall step and move on to the next one (if there is a next step), repeating this cycle until the quest is complete.
Good luck completing the Shared Skies quest!
