Field Research menu

Field Research 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 Gyms, and allow the player to earn rewards, including items, Pokémon, or Stardust. Pokémon obtained from Field Research tasks will have a minimum IV of 10 in each stat.

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. 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 along with additional rewards.

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