All Bug Out! 2022 Field Research tasks and rewards

The Bug Out! 2022 will be from August 10 to 16. You can only hold three of these at a time. There are various rewards, and they change depending on what Field Research you acquired from a PokéStop or Gym. Any Event Field Research tasks will have a distinct highlight around them, making these easier to spot in Pokémon Go.

These are all of the available Field Research tasks and rewards happening during the Bug Out! 2022 event.

  • Catch 10 Pokémon – Dewpider, Venipede, or Wimpod encounters
  • Catch 10 Bug-type Pokémon – Illumise, Venpiede, or Volbeat encounters
  • Catch 15 Pokémon – Burmy (Plant, Sandy, or Trash Cloak) encounters
  • Catch five Pokémon – Caterpie or Weedle encounters
  • Make Three Great Throws – Grubbin encounter
  • Make Three Great Throws in a row – Dwebble encounter
  • Make Three Nice Throws – Venonat encounter
  • Make Three Nice Throws in a row – Silcoon or Cascoon encounters
  • Make Two Excellent Throws – Nincada encounter
  • Take Snapshots of three different Bug-type Pokémon caught – Ledyba, Spinarak, or Yanma encounters
  • Trade a Pokémon – Karablast or Shelmet encounter
  • Use 10 berries to help catch Pokémon – Sewaddle or Combee encounter

Some better tasks include Make Three Great Throws and Catching 15 Pokémon. Many of these rewards consist of Bug-type Pokémon encounters, and the Make Three Great Throws Field Research gives you a chance to catch Grubbin, the Pokémon debuting in the Bug Out! event. If you catch enough of these, you can evolve it into a Charjabug and then a Vikavolt at a later point. Some of these tasks may also help you with the Bug Out! Collection Challenge.
