Feature appeared in April 2018, the study missions allow you to obtain rewards, capture rare Pokémon, but above all mark the arrival of the mythical Pokémon Mew. In this guide, we will list the different missions available and the special studies that allow you to unlock Mew. There are two types of studies that you can contribute to: Field Studies and Special Studies.
To unlock content or capture a legendary Pokémon, you must complete 7 stamps. Be careful though, you can only deposit a stamp once per day. So allow 7 days to unlock the content.
Field studies
Collect some missions Field study by rotating the PokéStops. You will then have to complete specific objectives, such as discovering and catching certain Pokémon, or participating in battles, among others. In addition, each mission must be completed a certain number of times (once, 2, 3, 10 times, etc.). If you don’t like a mission or it seems too difficult, you can delete it and spin a new Pokéstop to unlock a new one.
