Pok¨¦mon Go Field Notes: Team Go Rocket quest steps and rewards

Giovanni, we meet again.

Field Notes: Team Go Rocket is the latest Special task that released as part of the Battle Weekend storyline in Pokémon Go which began in July 2022.

This is a new set of tasks that focus on taking down Team Go Rocket in Pokémon Go, introducing new Shadow Pokemon and rewards - but you can expect the familar gauntlet of grunt trainer battles and catching Shadow Pokémon before taking on the leaders and, eventually, Giovanni himself.

You'll also be rewarded with experience and a range of items for every quest steps you complete.

Note: On its debut, there appears to be a bug where the latest Team Go Rocket quest released in November 2022, Ultra Beast Protection Efforts, where it'll be named after this one for the first step. Carry on as normal, and it will change to the new quest from the second step onwards.

How Field Notes: Team Go Rocket works in Pokémon Go

Field Notes: Team Go Rocket, which appeared in July 2022 at the start of the Battle Weekend Challenge event, is the latest in the line of Team Go Rocket quests.

To access this research quest, you must first complete the 'tutorial' quest, A Troubling Situation, and complete any previous Team Go Rocket quest you might have already started, such as An Inter-egg-sting Development and The Shadowy Threat Grows.

Don't worry if you're far behind in the Team Go Rocket lineup, because, once you've completed your current Rocket quest, you'll automatically jump to Team Go Rocket.

Each Team Go Rocket quest is based around defeating the crime organisation grunts and purifying Shadow Pokémon, which can be found at invaded PokéStops around the world.

You'll also need to battle the Leaders Arlo, Cliff and Sierra and, eventually, Giovanni.

Aside from these specific tasks, Team Go Rocket works exactly the same as the other research quests, which challenge you to complete a number of objectives in a specific order.

You'll have a good amount of time to complete Field Notes: Team Go Rocket. Generally, these types of quests don't expire, but you may want to get started before the Ultra Unlock: Battle Weekend event ends on Sunday, 10th September at 12am (local time). You'll be able to take advantage of numurous bonuses that will make completing the steps more worthwhile.


The Dual Destiny Season is here! It brings the Holiday Part 2 event with it. You can now catch Dynamax Pokémon through Max Battles. First, however, you need to visit Power Spots to collect Max Particles and complete the To the Max! quest. Don't forget to try out Routes, Gift Exchange and Party Play while you're hunting down rare Pokémon, fighting in the Go Battle League or competing in PokéStop Showcases.


Tips for completing Field Notes: Team Go Rocket

Here are some tips which will help you complete Field Notes: Team Go Rocket in Pokémon Go:

  • Don't forget to use Pinap Berries when catching Shadow Pokémon to ensure you gather enough Candy to purify the Pokémon once it's yours.
  • Before battling the three Team Go Rocket Leaders and Giovanni, make sure you check the possibilities for their lineups, so that you can plan an effective team of counters.
  • Since both the Leaders and Giovanni have a selection of Pokémon they can use, it's a good idea to investigate their team before properly defeating them - provided you have some healing items on standby for this first 'trial' encounter. You can do this by using a Pokémon which is guaranteed to defeat their first Pokémon, which will always be the same, and, once you know what they're second choice is, you can plan accordingly. Just remember that their lineup may change if you move to a different PokéStop.
  • If you're having trouble securing three Nice Throws in row, try finding a Pokémon with a large catch radius. Be patient with this one - it's tricky!
  • Remember - you can now use a Remote Raid pass to partake in battles from the comfort of your own home if you are struggling with the raid-specific step.

Good luck completing the latest Team Go Rocket research quest!
