Pokemon GO is currently running the Tour Hoenn event, starting as an in-person event in Las Vegas on February 18 and 19, and later will be playable globally on February 25 and 26.

Worry not, because this guide will help you uncover the broken Spooky Scramble Field Research Tasks and list all the rewards in Pokemon GO Tour Hoenn.
