With the arrival of October, Pokemon GO fans know to expect new Field Research quests. By doing these, players earn stamps to work toward the October Field Research Breakthrough Reward which is the legendary Water-type Suicune. While the difficulty of the quests varies, players often want to know what they get as a reward beforehand.

Although there are various types of rewards, an encounter with a wild Pokemon is a standard research reward. Of course, some are self-explanatory, such as when the reward is a silver Pinap berry. Quests are never random in reward, however, as players who get the right quest and reward combination are guaranteed to get a specific Pokemon. For those dedicated Pokemon GO players, we've compiled the quests and their associated reward below:

Of course, the time of this writing is October 1, so it's possible more quests and rewards are discovered in the next few days. Also ,it's worth mentioning that several of the aforementioned encounters have a chance to spawn a shiny, including new shiny Pokemon that were just introduced today.

In the meantime, players are likely preparing for Beldum Community Day, and though its special move is still unknown, it seems players are in for a treat. After all, the shinies for the Metagross family are something special. As October carries on and more Pokemon GO news develops, be sure to check back here. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!
