Tips For Finishing Research Tasks

Recommended To Catch Or Defeat Pokemon

The fastest way to progress with the research tasks is to catch or defeat Pokemon. Catching Pokemon can efficiently raise the research level of almost all Pokemon, so we recommend bringing out your Pokeballs first to try your luck at catching them before attempting to defeat them in battle.

Number Of Times You Saw A Particular Move

It is very easy to accomplish "Move Tasks" as it automatically progress whenever the enemy use particular moves. When you have an Agile/Strong Style Move task and a normal task, you can make them progress at the same time by using the style of that move.

Precautions When Filling In The Research Tasks

Some Pre-Evolution Tasks Are Not Filled After Evolution

When Pokemon is evolved, the post-evolved Pokemon Pokedex will be applied, and tasks before evolution will not be be accomplished using that evolved Pokemon. If you haven't captured a lot of pre-evolved Pokemon, it is recommended to fill in the tasks of the pre-evolved Pokemon before evolving.

The Capture Task Is Filled Even With Trading

If you Trade Pokemon with another person, Pokemon received will be registered as captured. If you have an exchange partner, you can fill in the tasks of Pokemon that are difficult to catch just by trading multiple times.

Evolution Also Fills the Capture Task

Even if you evolve a Pokemon, the task of capturing the evolved Pokemon will be filled as if it was captured. If it is difficult to capture Pokemon after evolution, it is also an effective means to prepare before evolution and evolve them all together to fill the task .

Benefits Of Raising Research Level

More Information Will Be Added To The Pokedex

dex

As you increase your research level, additional information about that Pokemon will be added. You will be able to see more useful information such as their height, weight, favorite food and held items.

More Areas Will Be Unlocked

▲ As you complete the Pokedex, your member rank will also increase.

By raising the research level of many Pokémon, the completion of the Pokedex will increase. The number of areas you can investigate increases with your member rank which means you will need to fill up the Pokedex to progress the game.

You Can Also Register Pokemon By Inspecting Them With ZL Button

Even without battling or catching Pokemon, you can still register them to the Pokedex by examining them using the ZL Button. This method is recommended for stronger enemies like Alpha Pokemon.
