Pokemon GO's Bidoof Day has finally arrived, and it has brought a brand new Special Research along with it. This is not the standard Special Research that players are used to, though, as it features some branching paths to select from. Indeed, Pokemon GO fans will need to make a couple of choices as they work through the Bidoof Day tasks, and this guide is here to assist with those decisions.
To get right to it, the first branching path in Pokemon GO's Bidoof Day Special Research appears during Stage 2, and players must pick either "Choose Bidoof!" or "Bidoof...?" Regardless of the selection that is made, fans will receive three tasks in this Stage, and they are as follows: Catch 1 Normal-type Pokemon, Take a Snapshot of Bidoof, and Catch 5 Bidoof. Furthermore, these tasks grant identical rewards across paths except for the one that is focused on Snapshots, which awards three Pinap Berries in "Choose Bidoof" and five Razz Berries in "Bidoof...?"
The situation is similar in Stage 3 of the Bidoof Day Special Research, which requires PoGO players to select between "Nerves of Steel" and "Nests Near Water." As with the previous Stage, the tasks featured in these two options are the same, and fans can look forward to transferring 10 Pokemon, taking a Snapshot of Bidoof, and catching five Bidoof on both paths. There is a slight difference between the rewards that are granted, though, as the "Nerves of Steel" path awards 10 Super Potions and five Razz Berries, while "Nests Near Water" awards 10 Poke Balls and three Pinap Berries for the corresponding task.
In summary, players that want Pinap Berries should select "Choose Bidoof" in Stage 2 of the Bidoof Day Special Research, and those that would like Razz Berries should select "Bidoof...?" And in Stage 3, fans that are interested in earning some Super Potions and Razz Berries should pick "Neves of Steel," while those that prefer Pinap Berries and Poke Balls in PoGO should pick "Nests Near Water." This is the extent of the considerations that need to be made when choosing between paths, which means that players need not agonize over their selections.
To note, there is one final reward that players will receive after completing all of the Bidoof Day Special Research tasks. That reward is a Bidoof Hat in Pokemon GO, and it is awarded no matter what paths a fan chooses. As such, players that are primarily interested in this new cosmetic item can rest easy knowing that they will receive it regardless of the options that they pursue.
