Giovanni is at it again in Pokemon Go. For the latest Team Rocket Takeover, he’s captured Shadow Regigigas during the Halloween 2023 Event, and players can complete the A Shadowy Disturbance Special Research for a shot at catching it.
All players in Pokemon Go will receive A Shadowy Disturbance when they log into the mobile game, so long as they already don’t have a Team Rocket Special Research in their quest log. This guide covers all the tasks and rewards you’ll receive for completing A Shadowy Disturbance in Pokemon Go.

Similar to the previous Team Rocket Takeover Special Research tickets, this one is free. Players will need to jump into the game before the end of Pokemon Go’s Halloween Part 2 event, which concludes on October 31, 2023. Giovanni will continue to appear in Pokemon Go, so long as you have the ultimate reward from this Special Research: a Super Rocket Radar. This is issued to the player on the fourth step and is a requirement to track Giovanni down. Otherwise, the Team Go Rocket Grunts and Leaders will continue to appear.
