Pokemon Go: How to Take a Snapshot of Thundurus « SuperParent

Everything you need to know.

In early 2020, the “Season of Legends” Special Research storyline was released in Pokemon Go. This storyline focuses on a group of three Legendary Pokemon: Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus.

As part of this Special Research storyline, players are asked to take a Snapshot of each of these Legendary pocket monsters. Specifically, Part 2 of the Special Research asks players to take a Snapshot of Landorus, while Part 3 asks players to take a Snapshot of Tornadus. Finally, Part 4 of this Special Research asks players to take a Snapshot of Thundurus (check out our complete guide to this Special Research right here).

Here’s everything you need to know about taking a Snapshot of Thundurus in Pokemon Go.

If you have either the Incarnate Forme or Therian Forme of Thundurus in your collection, you can quickly complete this Special Research task by tapping on Thundurus in your collection and then tapping the camera icon on the right side of the screen to open the game’s augmented reality (AR) camera. Once you place Thundurus in the world in front of you, you can take a picture to complete this task.

If you don’t have Thundurus in your collection, you won’t be able to complete this Special Research task until you collect one.

This means you’ll either need to wait for a future event where Thundurus is featured and capture one for your collection, or you can trade with another player to add Thundurus to your collection without waiting.

Thundurus was most recently available in Pokemon Go during Pokemon Go Fest 2021. Keep checking back with SuperParent, as we’ll let you know when Thundurus is once again available to collect in the game.
