In Pokémon GO the special research “A Unique Development” has started with Team Rocket. Crypto Mewtwo is waiting as a reward for you. We show all quests and rewards of the new research.
What is new? On the evening of October 12, 2020, the developers of Pokémon GO changed some content in the game. A revision of the eggs was the decisive point. Now there are 12 km eggs, different spawns in the wild, and new Crypto Pokémon in Pokémon GO.
New is a special research from Team GO Rocket. This brings back the popular Crypto Mewtwo for the first time in months. And you should definitely get it, because it is super strong.
Keep in mind: To receive this special research, you must first complete the last active Rocket research.

And how to catch Crypto Mewtwo?
Here you can find it: The Crypto Mewtwo, which was already found days ago by data miners, is not obtained as a reward from the special research.
Instead, you can catch it directly after the encounter with Giovanni. As after every battle against a Team GO Rocket member, you will receive an encounter with a Crypto Pokémon at the end. With Giovanni, it is guaranteed to be Crypto Mewtwo.
In the arenas, you currently encounter Giratina in its Origin Form – Here are the best counters.
