From the Shadows is the latest Giovanni research quest in 笔辞办é尘辞苍 Go.

Making its debut in late March 2023 as part of the Let’s Go event, it ends with an encounter and opportunity to catch Shadow Regice.

From the Shadows is part of a long line of Giovanni research quests, which started back in 2019 with A Troubling Situation. If From the Shadows is not appearing for you, first clear the most recent Giovanni quest in your quest log — the previous one was February 2023’s Shadowy Skirmishes — to allow this new quest to become available.

The second half of the Let’s Go event sees a Team Go Rocket Takeover, which ushers in changes to Eggs and Shadow 笔辞办é尘辞苍, which will be active until the event concludes on Wednesday, March 29 at 8 p.m. local time.
