Also certain types of spawns are increased to help fulfill the tasks
I caught the Aerodactyl before I looked ahead and saw that it was a quest. Now I need to find another Pokestop. I caught Ditto. I think Iāll use the 5 Rare Candies I get with this quest and turn it into Scyther candies and walk with him I suppose.
I think it is too late for me 
Completely forgot that you can still save a quest encounter up for laterā¦

Are Rare Candies still attainable in Raids? Iāve played a bunch of Level 1 Raids and havenāt received any - or is it just Level 2?
I was hoping to get a bunch of Rare Candies to help in evolving Scyther for my quest.

To me, tier 1 or 2 raid seldom gives me more than 1 rare candy, unless there was a guarantee of at least 1 rare candy in an event.

While doing the 10 Raid Battle quest, I managed to accumulate 7 Rare Candies - one level 2 raid gave me 3 Rare Candies, which surprised me. I combined that with the 5 Rare Candies from the previous quest and applied it to Scyther.
So question. There is the the Letās Go: Evolve 2 Anorith that gives you an encounter with Scyther to catch. Is it possible to stack up and find two of these quests and complete both tasks on the same evolutions? Iām still 17 candies away! lol This quest is killing me lol

Yes, you can stack 3 of the same quest and do evolution and complete all 3 at once.
I have 2 of those Anoroth evolve task. I evolved both at same time so it counted twice. Good to know Iāll get Scyther candies for that.
Probably
When I first saw all the tasks in this quest I thoughtā¦ wowā¦ this time, you really need to work for your mythical!
Itās a lot more to catch, hatch and evolve this time, and I like it. Iām currently stuck at the ābattle 10 raidsā task, which I could do within a day if I wanted, but I donāt want to just throw out my premium passes like thatā¦ So Iāll have to wait some days to finish this step, I will probably try to do it within a week.
But Iām a bit afraid of the last few steps. Currently Exeggcute, Anorith, Omanyte etc. are everywhere, just like the Aerodactyl quest (I would trade 10 of those quests for a single Nincada quest 
), but these spawns wonāt be there for too long, and it could become quite difficult after the event spawns stop.
OK, I do have my Meltan alreadyā¦ My husband has a Switch and bought the Letās Go Pikachu (bundled with the PokĆ©ball Plus). He wasnāt too interested in the game itself, so he let me play and unlock the GO Park for usā¦
But I just donāt like it when a special research remains unfinished

Do the quest

Better try to advance the stages as much as possible because the latter stages need some rare PokƩmon and the current spawns will change after November 27.

Iām currently at 3 raids, but with Cresselia out (That wasā¦ Onixepected ), I will have them finished this weekend that should leave plenty of time to catch the other stuff, I hope.
Tip if you donāt know yet peopleā¦
Battle in Raids can still be accomplish by just entering the raid, the counter will mark it as soon as it was initiated, then you can cancel, no need to really battle. But of course, you cannot get it again for the second time, you need to find another gym.
I canāt just remember if you can do it all in just 1 day. but I believe I remember I have done it with āBattle in 2 raidsā in just one playing, just separate gym. Your Orange pass will be returned to you once you left the raid by exiting it.
How do I found it out? Well I do not do raid, but I was just curious about it before so I tried and then exit and was surprise that the quest counter mark a stamp on my quest 
Up to Stage 6. Time to start raiding.

I managed to get Meltan yesterday. I knocked out the 10 Raids in about 3 hours on Sunday just driving around International Drive in Orlando and pulling over at each Raid location. For 8 out of 10 Raids, I actually battled in the tier 1 or tier 2 Raids because I wanted the Rare Candies for Scyther. For the remaining 2 Raids, which were tier 5 Raids, I did as you describe. I initiated the Raid, had it count towards my quest and then exit. I had 33 Premium Passes, so it didnāt bother me one way or the other. Yet, with me purchasing a Great Box and getting 3 Passes, and then some for completing the quest, Iām up to 29 again, lol. Nonetheless, they are handy to have when a quest calls for multiple Raids to be battled.
I doubled up on the Evolve 2 Anorith as someone above stated. It worked and I was able to evolve Scyther to complete my quest to get Meltan.
