Pokémon GO's Field Research system has been active for around a week now, which means players are finally getting enough stamps to unlock their first big reward - and it's a doozy.
It's being reported that securing a full week of research stamps gives you the chance to battle the legendary Moltres, which was previously only available in legendary raid battles for a limited period of time last summer.
Pokémon GO's raid battles have been a bone of contention for players who live in remote parts of the world or in areas where it's not possible to get enough people involved to beat the top-tier monsters. This new system changes all of that, and we'd imagine that more legendaries will become available in the future.
Let us know how you've been getting on with Pokémon GO's new Field Research system by posting a comment below.

Since missions only began last Friday evening, how do people know what seven day streaks are already?
Will look into this. Raid battles were the jumping off point for me 🤔
@Fandabidozi, I almost quit playing over the raid battles myself they were horrible even if you got a group big enough to beat the boss it was still a long shot to catch the legendary. I've started playing again with this latest update in my opinion it's the best update they have added yet .
The good news is that legendaries will be a lot easier to catch, at least on a per-throw basis.
A level 20 raid boss Moltres using premier balls, your highest chance would be 21%.
But a level 15 research breakthrough Moltres? The highest chance shoots up to 41% when using ultra balls instead of premier balls.
The caveat here is that there's a chance it could run, unlike raid bosses, they won't be kind enough to wait for you to run out of premier balls before they run.
I am all for this since I started playing in January and missed all previously-released legendaries.
@Fandabidozi @Romeo-75 Perhaps you can enlist the help of generous spoofers online for your raids?
