How to get the Pokemon Go Rocky Road Special Research story
If you want to access the Rocky Road Special Research story, you’ll need to purchase a ticket from the in-game shop for $1 or the equivalent pricing in your local currency.
This ticket needs to be purchased before the Community Day ends, although it’s always best to purchase it in advance so you’ll have a full three hours to complete every step and task involved.
Once you’ve claimed the Rocky Road Special Research story, you can complete it in your own time, but it’s much easier to do this during event hours as most tasks revolve around catching Alolan Geodude.
