Pokemon GOis in the midst of celebrating its 5th anniversary, and so it has brought back the Jump Start Special Research for new players.Pokemon GO’s Jump Start Special Research tasks are designed to give newPokemon GOplayers a boost in the game, giving them rewards that will help them level up faster as well as add a slew of Pokemon to their Pokedex, including the rare Dratini. However, those who are new toPokemon GOmay need some extra help if they want to complete the Jump Start Research tasks effectively.
After completing the first set ofPokemon GOJump Start Special Research tasks, players are rewarded with a Dratini. Some players may transfer or trade the Dratini, but they should actually hang on to it. Not only is Dratini a rare Pokemon, butPokemon GOplayers need one to complete the second set of objectives for the Jump Start Special Research. In fact, the second set of Jump Start Special Research tasks are all about Dratini, with players having to evolve a Dratini and take a snapshot of Dratini. They also need to earn candy walking with their buddy, which in turn rewards them with 30 Dratini candy for their troubles.

IfPokemon GOplayers transfer Dratini, then they won’t be able to complete the second set of Jump Start tasks. Unless, of course, they happen to have an extra Dratini lying around or if they get lucky and find one out in the wild. WithDratini being one of the rarer Pokemon inPokemon GO, though, that’s highly unlikely. Ultimately, the best bet is forPokemon GOplayers to always keep at least one of each type of Pokemon handy just in case they are needed for a quest.
AfterPokemon GOplayers evolve Dratini into Dragonair, they will want to hang on to the Pokemon for awhile longer. The final step in thePokemon GOJump Start Special Research asks players toevolve a Dragonair into a Dragonite. Evolving Dragonair into Dragonite requires 100 Dratini candy, which would normally be hard to come by, but the other tasks on the final page make it much easier.
The first thing players will want to do ismake a new friend inPokemon GO. This will net them 60 Dratini candy, putting them over halfway to the 100 Dratini candy goal. Then the next step is to win a level 3 or higher raid.Pokemon GORaidsare doable solo up to level 3, though it will be significantly easier if players tackle this objective in a group. In any case, accomplishing this task will getPokemon GOplayers another 60 Dratini candy and put them over the threshold required to evolve Dragonair into Dragonite.
