Meloetta can now stand alongside Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Victini, Hoopa and Meltan as mythical Pokémon, which, in Pokémon Go, are obtained by completing special research quests. Meloetta originally debuted on the first day of Go Fest 2021 as one of the rewards for The Melody Pokémon research quest. On this page: It’s important to note, however, that Go Fest 2021 ticket purchases will receive Meloetta candy, rather than a second Meloetta, for completing this research. If you were a Go Fest 2021 ticket holder, but are yet to catch Meloetta, we recommend visiting our The Melody Pokémon guide. This section contains spoilers, so read at your own risk!

If you want to quickly earn candies from walking your buddy, switch to a Pokémon who will earn a candy for every 1km you walk, such as Pikachu or Skwovet. A great way to find new friends in Pokémon Go is to visit The Silph Road subreddit and search for friend codes. Keep an eye out for Team Go Rocket balloons for a quick battle against one of the organisation’s grunts. Don’t forget - you can use Remote Raid passes to compete in any raid from the comfort of your own home and your friends can invite you to raids too! If you’re having trouble finding 30 different species of Pokémon, try using a Lure Module at a PokéStop to attract different creatures to your location.
Finding Your Voice is a special research quest released on Tuesday, 21st September 2021 and, since it has no deadline, can be completed at your own pace. It’s also the seventh in Pokémon Go’s series of mythical Pokémon special research questlines, with the others being for Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Victini, Hoopa and Meltan.
Finding Your Voice is divided into six steps and, for each step, three separate challenges that need completing for progression. You’ll be rewarded for every individual challenge and overall quest step you complete, with the main reward being the mythical Meloetta.
Players who purchased a Go Fest 2021 ticket, however, will receive Meloetta candy, because they will have access to, or already completed, Meloetta’s first special research quest - The Melody Pokémon.
The Season of Mythical Wishes continues with the Winter Holiday event, which has brought Mega Glalie to Pokémon Go. Don’t forget to partake in the new Go Battle League season.
Elsewhere, be sure to use Daily Adventure Incense for the chance of encountering Galarian Articuno, Galarian Zapdos and Galarian Moltres.
To obtain Meloetta players had to complete Stage Ten of the quest and, along the way, they were given the choice between Pikachu Rock Star or Pikachu Pop Star, a Meloetta-hatted Galarian Ponyta or Galarian Zigzagoon and a Meloetta-hatted Flygon or Gardevoir.
In keeping with the musical theme of Go Fest 2021, the quest concluded with the player’s chosen Pokémon and Meloetta performing as a band.
This manner of release follows the tradition of having a new mythical Pokémon released during Go Fest, with Celebi, Jirachi and Victini all being released in a similar manner at past Go Fests.
Instead of receiving a second Meloetta by completing Finding Your Voice, Go Fest 2021 ticket holders will earn additional candy for this Pokémon. If you bought a Go Fest 2021 ticket and haven’t caught Meloetta yet, then we recommend visiting our page on The Melody Pokémon research quest.
Good luck catching Meloetta in Pokémon Go!
