Final Strike GO Battle Week Timed Research and Field Research: Pokemon GO tasks and rewards

The Final Strike GO Battle Week event brings two sets of Timed Research (one paid and one free) and several event-themed Field Research for Pokemon GO trainers to participate in. There are plenty of lucrative rewards in store, including Pocket Monster encounters, XP, Stardust, and Kubfu Candy.

Final Strike GO Battle Week not only marked the debut of Urshifu and its two forms into the mix but also provided Pokemon GO trainers with another chance to catch Dynamax Kubfu. The Fuzzy Fighter Special Research provides such an encounter along with plenty of Kubfu Candy. The event also released the final chapter of the Might and Mastery Special Research.
