It’s another fun-filled week in Pokemon GO full of new things to do as part of the new Fashion Week event, including a brand new set of Timed Research for players to work their way through.
Fashion Week is centered around the introduction of Furfrou to the game, which is one of the most unique Pokemon out there due to its various forms.
This event starts on Tuesday, September 21 at 10:00 am local time and will run through Tuesday, September 28 at 8:00 pm local time, so keep an eye out for the Timed Research to show up.

What Is Timed Research In Pokemon GO?
There are three types of research in Pokemon GO, including Special Research, Field Research, and Timed Research.
The latter two are almost always tied to a specific type of event, as they do not last very long. Special Research keep going until you complete them, while Timed Research instead is limited.
You only have a certain amount of time to complete Timed Research, so always keep an eye out for how long it tells you is remaining and get it done before it goes away forever.
Fashion Week Timed Research Tasks And Rewards
The Fashion Week event is already starting in some parts of the world and that means some people can already access the Timed Research as well.
This Timed Research is made up of five total steps, each with three tasks to complete. There are also some new types of tasks here that we haven’t seen before with what are known as Fashion Challengers.
