Pokemon Go March Field Research tasks, rewards and breakthrough

Pokemon GO has outlined some but not all of the big events coming to the game in March.

Of course, there could be some changes to March proceedings, specific events. We've already seen that some Pokemon GO events have been called off in Japan due to the ongoing tension and caution towards the coronavirus.

However, those looking to get outside to play the game should still be able to enjoy themselves without the need for any huge events, because there are some changes to the Field Research Quests and rewards.

If you're new to the game, or joining the game again after a few months away, then let us quickly explain how the field Research quests work.

In Pokemon Go players spin PokeStops and collect field research quests from Professor Willow. These are completely random and the quest for each PokeStop changes every 24 hours.

Should players take the time to complete field research they'll earn rewards in return. This could be anything from Pokeballs to random Pokemon encounters. It all depends on the research task you complete.

Naturally, Pokemon encounters are most popular, especially when the Pokemon is especially rare. Your odds of catching a shiny are increased too.

Complete seven Field Research Quests and you then unlock a field research breakthrough, which means you'll have the chance to capture an extra special Pokemon that otherwise can't be caught in the wild.

With the start of a new month, it's all change once again, so keep reading for everything you need to know about the Pokemon Go March field research quests and rewards!
