From the Shadows is the latest Giovanni research quest in Pokémon Go.
Making its debut in late March 2023 as part of the Let’s Go event, it ends with an encounter and opportunity to catch Shadow Regice.
From the Shadows is part of a long line of Giovanni research quests, which started back in 2019 with A Troubling Situation. If From the Shadows is not appearing for you, first clear the most recent Giovanni quest in your quest log — the previous one was February 2023’s Shadowy Skirmishes — to allow this new quest to become available.
The second half of the Let’s Go event sees a Team Go Rocket Takeover, which ushers in changes to Eggs and Shadow Pokémon, which will be active until the event concludes on Wednesday, March 29 at 8 p.m. local time.
From the Shadows tasks and rewards
From the Shadows Special Research will be available to unlock until the next Giovanni quest and highlighted Shadow Legendary encounter arrives later in the year. Once unlocked, there is no time limit to complete the quest.
Rewards: 1,000 XP, 500 Stardust, 3 Mysterious Components
Rewards: 1,500 XP, 1,000 Stardust, 1 Rocket Radar
Rewards: 2,500 XP, 1,000 Stardust, 1 Super Rocket Radar
Rewards: 3,000 XP, 2,000 Stardust, 2 Golden Razz Berries
You’ll be able to catch the final Shadow Pokémon in Giovanni’s team once you have used your Super Rocket Radar. This varies depending on when you play the quest; from March 2023 until when the next Giovanni quest debuts, this will be Shadow Regice.
Rewards: 5,000 XP, 2,500 Stardust, 2 Silver Pinap Berries
