A to Zygarde: all Special Research tasks and rewards

Below I’ve listed the six steps that need to be fulfilled to complete this Special Research. But don’t worry, there are only really four sets of tasks, as two of the steps are simply a bunch of free rewards! In the later steps, after you’ve got Zygarde, there are a lot of tasks that revolve around the new routes feature. Bear in mind that this is a new feature, and so there may not be many or any near where you live.

Also note that you don’t need to complete them all to get Zygarde!
