The “To the Max!” Special Research debuted in Sept. 2024’s “Max Out” season in Pokémon Go, serving as a little tutorial for how Dynamaxing, Max Battles, and Power Spots work.
Completing this research will reward you with some Max Particles and a Dynamax Wooloo, so by doing a few of these quests, you’ll be set to start max battling.
All of this comes on the heels of the “Max Out” season, which added more Galarian Pokémon, a “Galar Calling” Special Research that rewards you with a starter Pokémon, and a new regional Pokémon (Stonjourner).
