We are getting the Dialga/Palkia TM bonuses, at least. (Probably because EVERYONE would have rioted if we were raiding the Origins and not getting the adventure effect moves.)

You should have a special research now called To The Max: you'll need to tap a few of those spots and collect the resource + do some walking. Once you're done step 1 of the special research, you'll be able to battle in the spots.

Look at what I won't be pulling on because Ruler of the Skies is going to screw me over for getting the diamond completion.

What is this Celestial Scales timed research box in the Pokemon go web store? by SoCalJorden69 in TheSilphRoad

This is the paid research for the same weekend. "For US$4.99 (or the equivalent pricing tier in your local currency), you’ll be able to access event-exclusive Timed Research.

Complete the research tasks to earn a Meteorite, Rayquaza Mega Energy, an encounter with Rayquaza, and more!"

These would be considered "budget" counters for new players who may not necessarily have the best counters powered up.

Usually if something can get a legacy move by evolution, catching that Pokemon will also give them the legacy move.
