Trainers, new Field Research tasks are now available in Pokemon Go. These Field Research tasks and rewards will be here until the end of the World of Wonders Season, as well as Research Breakthrough encounters.
The new Field Research focuses on catching Pokemon, making Nice, Great, and Excellent throws, hatching Eggs, spinning PokeStops, battling in the GBL, winning Raids, defeating Team Go Rocket Grunts, and much more.
In these three months, from March 1 to June 1, 2024, you can encounter Hisuian Sneasel, Furfrou, Goomy, Sandygast, Jangmo-o, and Dubwool, as Research Breakthroughs.
Now, to get these Research Breakthrough encounters you must complete Field Research tasks. Each completed task will give you one stamp, limited to one per day, and you must collect 7 to encounter one of the above-mentioned Pokemon.
That said, let’s take a look at all Field Research tasks available throughout the World of Wonders Season.
