Pokemon Go is having a special short-term event today, and it's centred around Bidoof, our very favourite buck-toothed Pokemon. Whether you're smacking him in the head with Fluffruit in New Pokemon Snap, or catching an army of them to take into battles, Bidoof is popular, and he's here to stay.
In the brand new limited time research, you'll be catching Bidoof, photographing Bidoof, transferring Bidoof… There are a lot of Bidoof, okay? I hope you have a healthy stack of Pokeballs ready to go.
In this guide we're going to explain to you, in detail, how to complete the BIDOOF! challenges, and what you'll find behind the varying paths which are exclusive to this new Research Task. Get ready to glimpse the future of Pokemon Go.
All Rewards And Tasks In Pokemon Go's Bidoof Research Tasks
Most of these tasks are going to look pretty repetitive, but it's all leading up to something amazing, believe me. Here's what you'll need to do for each step. By the way, if you keep seeing the number "399" popping up, that would be because that's Bidoof's number in the National Dex.

This Bidoof challenge is a strange one, and stands out as the very first multiple choice Research Task in Pokemon Go yet. This is likely a vision of the future, but for now it's nice to see the kinds of tasks we can undertake expanding.
