How to Make Curveball Throws

Here is how you can make a curveball throw in Pokemon GO:

  1. Tap and hold the Poke ball.
  2. Now instead of throwing it in a straight line, start making a few circles.
  3. You can make them in both clockwise and anticlockwise directions.
  4. Keep in mind the arc follows the direction you choose for making the circles. So for example, if you spin the Poke ball clockwise, then when you throw it, it launches in an arc that goes from left to right before hitting the Pokemon. The opposite is true when you spin anticlockwise.
  5. After you are done making a few circles launch the Poke ball at the Pokemon.

Make such curveball throws 42 times and you will complete the Timed Research tasks for this event.
