'''Field Research''' (Japanese: ) are small goals that can be completed in [[Pokémon GO]] which initially introduced by [[Professor Willow]] to aid him in his discoveries. Research Tasks involve a range of objectives, such as catching Pokémon, or battling in [[Gym (GO)|Gym]]s, and allow the player to earn rewards, including items, Pokémon, or [[Stardust (GO)|Stardust]]. Tasks can be obtained by spinning [[PokéStop]]s, and a maximum of three active tasks can be held at one time. A player can choose to discard a task to free up space for another. A single PokéStop will provide the same task for all players for a single day, and the task cannot be obtained again if the task from that PokéStop was completed for the day.
'''Field Research''' (Japanese: '''フィールドリサーチ''' ''Field Research'') are small goals that can be completed in {{g|GO}}, which were initially introduced by [[Professor Willow]] to aid him in his discoveries. Research tasks involve a range of objectives, such as catching Pokémon or battling in {{GO|Gym}}s, and reward players with items, Pokémon encounters, or {{GO|Stardust}}.


Completing a Research task will earn the player a Stamp. Only one Stamp can be obtained per day, and once the player earns seven Stamps, the player will receive a '''Research Breakthrough''' (Japanese: ) along with additional rewards.
Pokémon obtained from Field Research tasks will have a minimum of 10 {{IV}}s in each stat and an initial [[power up]] level of 15. [[Weather]] bonuses are not applied for these types of encounters. Field Research Pokémon are guaranteed to never [[escape|flee]]. If the player runs from the encounter, the Pokémon will be saved into a queue that can be later accessed by a "Claim Reward!" button above the Field Research tasks.


Special Research Tasks have been available on special events, including during Community Days.
Tasks can be obtained by spinning [[PokéStop]]s, and a maximum of three active tasks can be held at one time. A player can choose to discard a task to free up space for another. A single PokéStop will provide the same task for all players for a single day, and the task cannot be obtained again if the task from that PokéStop was completed for the day. A PokéStop that has had its task completed will have a blue Research completion icon on the top-right of the screen when viewed.


== List of Field Research tasks ==
Completing a Research task will earn the player a Stamp up to once per day. Once the player has earned seven Stamps, the player will receive a '''Research Breakthrough''', which includes various rewards and an encounter with a special Pokémon.

===Event-exclusive tasks===
{{main|Field Research/Event-exclusive tasks}}
Certain events have had their own set of Field Research tasks that players may obtain during the event period. After the event period has ended, PokéStops that have event-exclusive tasks will switch back to standard tasks. After an event is over, players that have unfinished event-exclusive tasks may still complete them; however, tasks that would have rewarded event-exclusive forms (e.g. Pikachu wearing a flower crown or Spinda with a heart pattern) may reward their standard forms instead, and vice-versa.
 
==Research Breakthrough==
[[File:GO Research Breakthrough.png|thumb|150px|Reward box for Research Breakthrough]]
Collecting seven Field Research stamps awards players with a Research Breakthrough that includes an encounter with a special Pokémon, which rotates every month. The Pokémon encountered has either been exclusive rare Pokémon or [[Legendary Pokémon]] that were previously available in {{GO|Raid Battle|raid}}s. The {{shinystar/GO}} icon denotes Pokémon that can possibly be encountered as {{GO|Shiny Pokémon|Shiny}} from a Research Breakthrough.
 
Along with the Pokémon encounter, players are also rewarded the following:

Field Research menu

Field Research (Japanese: フィールドリサーチ Field Research) are small goals that can be completed in Pokémon GO, which were initially introduced by Professor Willow to aid him in his discoveries. Research tasks involve a range of objectives, such as catching Pokémon or battling in Gyms, and reward players with items, Pokémon encounters, or Stardust.

Pokémon obtained from Field Research tasks will have a minimum of 10 IVs in each stat and an initial power up level of 15. Weather bonuses are not applied for these types of encounters. Field Research Pokémon are guaranteed to never flee. If the player runs from the encounter, the Pokémon will be saved into a queue that can be later accessed by a "Claim Reward!" button above the Field Research tasks.

Tasks can be obtained by spinning PokéStops, and a maximum of three active tasks can be held at one time. A player can choose to discard a task to free up space for another. A single PokéStop will provide the same task for all players for a single day, and the task cannot be obtained again if the task from that PokéStop was completed for the day. A PokéStop that has had its task completed will have a blue Research completion icon on the top-right of the screen when viewed.

Completing a Research task will earn the player a Stamp up to once per day. Once the player has earned seven Stamps, the player will receive a Research Breakthrough, which includes various rewards and an encounter with a special Pokémon.

Separate Field Research tasks have been temporarily available on special events, including during Community Days.

List of Field Research tasks

Please check the content of this article and update it as required.

The following is a list of all Field Research tasks that have been available to players since January 2021, along with all possible rewards for completing each task. Currently, Field Research tasks are expected to be rotated on the first day every month. The Shiny icon denotes Pokémon that have a chance of being Shiny during the reward encounter.

For a list of past Field Research tasks, see list of Field Research changes.

Event-exclusive tasks

Main article: Field Research/Event-exclusive tasks

Certain events have had their own set of Field Research tasks that players may obtain during the event period. After the event period has ended, PokéStops that have event-exclusive tasks will switch back to standard tasks. After an event is over, players that have unfinished event-exclusive tasks may still complete them; however, tasks that would have rewarded event-exclusive forms (e.g. Pikachu wearing a flower crown or Spinda with a heart pattern) may reward their standard forms instead, and vice-versa.

Research Breakthrough

Reward box for Research Breakthrough

Collecting seven Field Research stamps awards players with a Research Breakthrough that includes an encounter with a special Pokémon, which rotates every month. The Pokémon encountered has either been exclusive rare Pokémon or Legendary Pokémon that were previously available in raids. The Shiny icon denotes Pokémon that can possibly be encountered as Shiny from a Research Breakthrough.

Along with the Pokémon encounter, players are also rewarded the following:

Item Quantity
XP Experience ×3,000
Stardust Stardust ×2,000
One of:
Rare Candy Rare Candy ×3
Pinap Berry Pinap Berry ×5
Poké Ball Poké Ball ×20
