Pokemon GO Very Fairy: The Sylveon Advantage

The Sylveon you get in Research’s step four rewards is a game-changer for Super Mega Raids. These new raid battle bosses become Enraged and put up multiple shields. While your standard attacks won’t do much, a Mega-Evolved Pokemon can smash through one shield using a Charged Attack.

Sylveon is one of the best choices for this role. It charges energy very quickly, and its Fairy typing makes it the perfect shield-breaker against the Dragon, Dark, and Fighting-type bosses common in the Kalos Tour.

Pokemon GO Very Fairy: Optimizing Hearts

To complete the “Earn 6 hearts with your buddy” tasks quickly, use the Buddy Swap feature. You can swap your buddy up to 20 times per day. Simply feeding, playing, and taking a snapshot with your buddy provides 3 easy hearts, allowing you to finish each stage in a single afternoon.
