Before my female Baxcalibur evolved from an Arctibax just a few moments ago, my middle Paldea Research task said “Evolve 4 / 6 Pokémon of the Rare-Rarity originally adopted from Prof. Rowan's Lab via Level-Up”. And, after this Rare-rarity Pokémon that I got from the Lab evolved while it was on the Index Page, it still said the same thing.

When it evolved from a Frigibax into an Arctibax about a couple of days ago, that was recognized by the Paldea Research. But for some reason its second evolution wasn’t.

Edit: Same thing just happened with the Pupitar I’ve had in my party a long time finally evolving into Tyranitar. Has it been changed so that you can’t get two evolutions anymore? That never happened before.

As far as i know, second evolutions just counts for paldea research when they are easy rarity pokemon.

Pokemon with medium, hard and rare rarity are not counting towards the tasks in their second evolution.

What i can't assure is if those, medium/hard/rare pokemon are the ones that are wrong or if the easy rarity ones are tge ones tgat shouldn't be coubting when they evolve twice 🤷‍♂️

As stated by Riako here, only eggs have rarity. Frigibax is of rare rarity, because there is an egg that directly hatches into a.frigibax. However, arctibax is technically has no rarity since there is no egg in PH that directly hatches into an arctibax. Arctibax has technically no real rarity n only merely borrowing the rarity of frigibax which is its preevo.

~razpberry, I understand what you want to say but in this case it is not related.

If you have a weedle from lab, both their weedle/kakuna evolution and the kakuna/beedrill evolution will count towards the "evolve X easy rarity pokemon" task

But that doesn't happen with any other rarity evo tasks, nor rare, nor hard, nor medium. The second evolution is not counting for any of these rarities
