August 2021 has arrived and Pokemon GO trainers have a whole new calendar of events and activities to prepare for. The game's biggest changes now arrive with each new Season (usually every three months), but each calendar month does still bring a decent list of new Field Research tasks, or at least some different rewards, into the mix.

The seasonal Field Research associated with the Season of Discovery are still sticking around just a bit longer, but there's a long list of other new rewards that many trainers will likely want to check out. Being aware of what tasks are available and what rewards are associated with them helps Pokemon GO players know when a task is worth abandoning versus when one should be completed as soon as possible to lock in the exciting encounter reward.

The August 2021 field research tasks are available now and trainers can start picking them up at Pokestops to power through the simple challenges and earn their daily stamps and the associated rewards. There are some decent rewards up for grabs this month, so players should have plenty of motivation to continue completing tasks even after they've earned their daily stamp.
