How to Clear A Seasonal Gathering

Take the Branching Path into the Sunny Spot

In the third area of the Forest, take the branching path to enter the Sunny Spot. You should be able to access this area after following the similar steps found for Little Lost Deerling.

Scan Until Espeon Comes Down

Keep your camera aimed at the left-side of the path while scanning. This should trigger Espeon to come down from his resting spot.

Feed Espeon

With Espeon down, just throw a Fluffruit in his direction and he'll approach it to eat it. After doing so, Espeon will run to the opposite side and climb up on the ledge again. It will eventually rest on the corner of the ledge.

Toss Multiple Illumina Orbs

The main goal of the request is to get all four Sawsbuck forms into the area around the Crystabloom. Currently, there are two Sawbuck in the clearing. To get third Sawsbuck, you need to throw multiple Illumina Orbs at Espeon until the animation of it cleaning itself happens.

After Espeon stands up, toss another Illumina Orb at the Crystabloom in the center of the clearing to call the fourth Sawsbuck.

Zoom in to Slow down the NEO-ONE

Now we have to stall for as much time as we can until Espeon calls the other Sawsbuck over. We recommend zooming in while waiting as it slows the NEO-ONE down. This should buy enough time for the Espeon to call the Sawsbuck from different seasons over.

Take a Photo of all Four Sawsbuck Howling

Once all the Sawsbuck of different seasons are in close proximity to one another. Play the Melody. This will trigger them to howl simultaneously. Take a photo of this moment and submit it to the professor to complete this quest.

Make sure all four seasons of the Sawsbuck are visible in the frame. You can also use fluffruit to help group them closer to each other.
