Pokémon GO: todas las investigaciones, recompensas y shiny de agosto (2020)

Like every month, we review everything we can do in the field missions throughout August, which counts as a great reward for Scraggy.

Pokémon GO in August is on fire, almost like the weather that accompanies us in practically the entire Peninsula. Summer is not a reason for the Niantic phenomenon to stop for a second and, as we have already seen with all the raid bosses and all the Pokémon that we can get through the hatching of Eggs in August, it is time to review all the investigations, rewards and shiny creatures of this ninth chapter of 2020.
