Pokemon Go is getting a fresh Research Day and this time, Oddish is the creature being put under the spotlight. During the short, but sweet time that this event is live, you’ll encounter a lot of fellow grass type Pokemon and gain some useful bonuses to help you along the way.
Oddish is a Grass, Poison-type Pokemon from the Kanto region. It’s part of a family of four, evolving into a Gloom, Vileplume, and Bellossom. The first evolution requires 25 candies, with subsequent evolutions costing 100 candies. Although Oddish has been in Pokemon Go since the game launched back in 2016, a Shiny variant wasn’t released until 2019.
