The special research on the new Rocket event in Pokémon GO is known. We will show you all tasks and rewards for the field notes research.
What kind of special research is this? On the night of November 14th, Pokémon GO will launch the big Rocket takeover. In this event, the crypto Pokémon of the team members will change, and you will once again have the chance to catch Crypto-Mewtwo.
To catch Crypto-Mewtwo, you need to encounter Giovanni. And you earn this in the special research “Ultra Beast Protection Efforts”. In English, the research is called “Field Notes: Team GO Rocket”. You will receive the research starting at 00:00 on November 14th. We will show you an overview of all tasks and rewards.
