Field research missions have been present in the Pokémon GO mobile game for years and while most of the time they don’t change, their rewards do and we invite you to discover the list of those that are available for this month of May.
Field research in Pokémon GO allows you to obtain rewards that change depending on the month, and for this guide, we’re going over the ones that are currently available.
Pokémon GO Studies: What is it?
While playing Pokémon GO, you can complete many missions through studies. Each will reward you more or less generously and there are different types that work the same way. You have to complete different tasks in order to complete the entire study.
- One-off study : This is a time-limited quest available, usually during an event.
- Special study : This is a non-time-limited quest that is available from a specific point in time.
- Field study : These are quests that require you to collect 7 stamps. To obtain a stamp, you must complete a field research task that you obtain by spinning a PokéStop. In addition, each day, a task is automatically added (up to a maximum of three). Note that you can have a maximum of 5 tasks in progress thanks to PokéStops.
