‘Rhi’s Arrival’ Go Fest 2022 quest steps in Pokémon Go

Rhi’s Arrival is a special research quest in Pokémon Go that is available to both players who’ve purchased a Go Fest 2022 ticket, and those that haven’t. However, you must play Pokémon Go on Sunday, 5th June between 10am to 6pm (local time) to unlock this questline.

Thankfully, as long as you have unlocked the quest, it will stay in your special research tasks until it’s been completed. None of the tasks are hard to complete outside of the event, so there’s no particular rush to complete it, unless you’re a Go Fest 2022 ticket-holder, and you wish to unlock the 'A Radiant World' special research.
