• If a Trainer encounters a Shiny Pokémon as a research reward, said Pokémon will remain shiny until the Trainer captures it. The Trainer is free to run away and re-encounter the Pokémon and it will always be shiny. [1]
• Upon collecting the reward (which grants the stamp), you can choose not to enter the encounter immediately, but if you tap the reward again, you will immediately be taken to the encounter without warning. However, if you don't have enough Poké Balls to catch it, you can exit and the reward will still be available later. The Pokémon is considered to have spawned when you first enter the encounter. Encounter tasks do not count towards the 3 task maximum once you have collected the stamp, even if you haven't captured the Pokémon.
• For Nice/Great Throw tasks, a higher tier Throw will count.
• Due to the COVID-19 pandemic , select Field Research tasks that could be difficult to finish from home are removed. [2] A list can be found here .

Special Research List

Special Research Lines come in two main flavors: Unlimited and Limited. Unlimited lines unlock at specific points in the game, and  are available to complete at the player's leisure. Limited lines have specific requirements to unlock such as playing during a specific time period, and may or may not have a time-limit. 

Unlimited Special Research

Research System Breakdown

Research Tasks are divided into four categories:

• Field Research - Single-objective goals such as spinning PokeStops and catching Pokemon that reward items and one "stamp" (1 per day). These are the tasks outlined above.
• Special Research - Story based multi-objective goals such as catching and transferring Pokemon that have unknown rewards
• Paid Research  - Similar to Special Research, but a ticket must be purchased in order to actually enjoy these Research lines. These are frequently tied to events or seasons.
• Research Breakthrough - Rewards based on collecting stamps that reward Stardust, items, and a Pokemon encounter. 

Task Mechanics

A trainer can hold up to 3 tasks at a time, 4 including an AR task. Also, trainers can trash a task if they do not want to try to complete it.

Trainers receive tasks from spinning PokeStops, and each Pokestop gives the same task to all trainers during the day. If the reward is an encounter, all trainers receive the same species (though IVs will differ). If you get a task on Monday from a stop and don’t clear it until Tuesday, you will not be able to get a task from that same PokeStop on Tuesday as once you receive a task, you will not receive another one from that PokeStop. However, if you delete a task, you can go back to that stop later in the day to get it again.

Various events frequently have their own unique set of tasks with event-themed rewards. Community Days in particular bend the Research rule a bit, as the research assigned to each Stop for the day changes to Community Day-themed research for the duration of the event, and revert back to normal after the event. Note that completing research from a given stop at any point during a given day will cause it to remain claimed for the rest of said day regardless of event-themed task changes. 

Tasks give a variety of rewards, often based on the challenge you had to complete. Rewards can be encounters, Stardust, or items such as balls, potions, revives, TMs, and Rare Candy. Generally, more difficult tasks will have higher rewards.

Encounters from tasks are level 15 Pokemon with IVs of at least 10 in all 3 stats. After clearing an encounter task, you will be taken to the encounter. The Pokemon will not be weather boosted regardless of the in-game weather. You can run from the encounter and come back to it in the future.

Once you clear an encounter task, you can immediately collect a new task. Interestingly enough, you can save a large number of encounters! Some trainers do this and choose to catch them during a Lucky Egg or Star Piece session.

Each day when you complete your first task, you receive a Research Stamp. When you have 7 stamps, you will receive a Research Breakthrough.

Research Breakthrough rewards change each season.

General Tips

Special research tasks do not give a daily stamp - only field research does Minimum level for Special Research is level 5 Pokemon encounters appear to be at level Many players have a “refill loop” or “grind loop” of stops and gyms in their PoGo lives, often one they hit multiple times each day.. If you have the option, add a second loop. Having multiple loops will greatly increase the number of tasks seen Try to keep one open task so you can always pick a new one up when you visit a Pokestop for the first time in a day. Find a network of players to report tasks, perhaps through your raid chat of choice. You won’t be able to check every stop, so if people call out TM, Rare Candy or Chansey quests it can really help. Some communities have focused on calling out Charmander encounter quests. This is a great way to farm high IV Pokemon before a community day. Some encounters have very large hit-boxes. Save these for when you are working on a 3 excellent or 3 great throw in a row quest. Try not to hold more than 1 long term quest. Remember there is an opportunity cost to holding 3 “Catch a Ditto for 3 Rare Candy” tasks. Obviously the payoff is awesome, but in the meantime you are missing out on so many other potential rewards from other tasks you cannot get. Don’t miss a day of Research Progress. If you don’t think you can play much tomorrow, leave one task unclaimed today. Tomorrow you can wake up, claim the task, and make progress towards your Research Breakthrough. Consider weather, biome, and active events when deciding whether to keep or delete a task. You likely aren’t going to quickly complete the “3 Pidgey or Murkrow” task on a sunny day during a rock event, but you should blow through “catch 5 Pokemon with Weather Boost” on a cloudy day during a fighting event. If you don’t throw excellents well, it’s not the end of the world to toss a task requiring an excellent throw. Holding on to tasks without substantial rewards for a long period of time is a big mistake. In general, take your playstyle into account when deciding to keep or delete a task. Do you battle gyms constantly? Then the Minium task isn’t bad as you will quickly turn it over. Did you already use your raid pass for the day? Then don’t hold on to that “Defeat a level 3 raid for some potions” type tasks. Free to play? Then the hatch 3 eggs” quest is probably an easy one to delete. Have a task that you know you cannot complete quickly at a stop near your house? Well trash that task while you grind. Then as you return home you can grab it later in the day. That way you can cycle through more tasks without it clogging your inventory. Remember that reward encounters and the Research Breakthrough reward have a 0% flee rate. Use pinaps liberally! Keep track of local nests. “Catch 3 Bugs” is much easier when you know there is a Caterpie nest a couple blocks away.

Ultra Space Wonders field research tasks in Pokémon Go

If you spin a PokéStop during the Ultra Space Wonders event in Pokémon Go, you might find yourself collecting an event-exclusive field research task. These tasks can be saved in your field research collection and completed after the event if you so choose.

• Catch 10 Pokémon reward - Nidoran Female or Nidoran Male encounter
• Power up Pokémon 5 times reward - Trubbish encounter
• Power up Pokémon 10 times reward - Mareanie encounter

Thank you to SilphScience from reddit for the help with this information!

Everything else we know about Ultra Space Wonders in Pokémon Go

The Ultra Space Wonders event marks the release of Naganadel in Pokémon Go. You can now evolve the Poipole you earned from the World of Wonders Special Research quest by catching 20 Dragon-type Pokémon while it's your buddy and then using 200 Poipole Candy.

The final part of the World of Wonders Special Research quest will also be released as part of this event. If you haven't claimed this quest yet, then you need to do so before Saturday 1st June at 9:59am (local time) . If you miss this deadline, then you'll also miss your chance to add Poipole and Naganadel to your Pokédex for the time being.

Naganadel isn't the only Ultra Beast being released as part of Ultra Space Wonders though as both Stakataka and Blacephalon are also making their debuts. (Though I could have done without Blacephalon. Not a fan of Blacephalon...)

It's important to note that both of these Ultra Beasts are regionally exclusive . Stakataka can only be found in five-star raids in the Eastern Hemisphere , while Blacephalon can only be found in Western Hemisphere raids. If you want to catch both, then you can use apps like Poke Genie and Remote Raid Passes to take part in these raids. Though we may see them swap hemispheres in the far future as regionally exclusive Pokémon sometimes to do...

Meanwhile, there's also one bonus running until the Ultra Space Wonders event finishes on Tuesday 28th May at 8pm (local time) - double XP for winning Ultra Beast raid battles. Perfect if you're planning on battling the new Ultra Beasts a couple of times!

The following Pokémon will also be appearing more frequently in the wild during the event:

Ultra Space Wonders also sees the release of shiny Mareanie and Toxapex!

If you prefer raids, however, you'll be able to fight the following Pokémon during Ultra Space Wonders:

You can also partake in PokéStop Showcase and purchase new avatar items - Naganadel Jacket and Pants - from the in-game store.

Finally, there is a pay-to-play timed research quest running throughout the Ultra Space Wonders event. This quest costs $5 or the equivalent pricing tier in your local currency. While it is nonrefundable and can not be purchased using PokéCoin, you can gift this quest to a play you're Great Friends or higher with.

Hope you enjoy the Ultra Space Wonders event!

What Pokémon should we use the Master Ball in Pokémon GO?

The Master Ball allows you to catch any Pokémon after you throw it . Therefore, the most efficient way to use it is to catch Galarian Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres , three very elusive Pokémon with a very low appearance rate and a very high escape probability that will only appear if we use a Daily Adventure Incense .

If we are lucky enough to come across one and have a Master Ball in our inventory, we can simply throw it and the Pokémon will be captured automatically thanks to the special animation of this supreme Poké Ball.
