‘Willow's Return' quest steps in Pokémon Go
Willow's Return is a special research quest in Pokémon Go that is available to all trainers who log into the game during the hours of 10am and 6pm (local time) on 27th August, 2022.
Handily, you don't actually need to complete the research during this time, only pick it up. It will then stay in your 'Special' research tab until you complete all of its steps.
However, if you have a ticket for the Go Fest 2022 Finale and want to work towards the A Radiant Reunion special research quest on Finale Day, then you'll have to complete Willow's Return first in order to unlock it.
This isn't necessary, however, as A Radiant Reunion and all of its steps will still be available to you after Finale Day ends at 6pm (local time), as long as you picked up the 'Willow's Return' special research quest.
