December is here and Pokemon GO players have a brand-new season of activities to enjoy. The arrival of the Season of Mythical Wishes means new events, spawns, bonuses, and Battle Raids for players to enjoy over the coming three months. It also means a ton of the daily Field Tasks and Rewards have been updated to align with the new season's featured Pokemon and theme.

Unlike last month, where many of the same tasks and rewards returned from earlier Season of Light months, this is a brand new rotation. There are some great opportunities for Pokemon GO trainers to earn some exciting encounter rewards and useful Mega Energy via Daily Field Research, so studying the full list of possibilities is a useful exercise.

The monthly rotation is already live, so players can find any of the new December 2022 tasks at Pokestops in the mobile AR game right now. As always, players just need to spin a stop to grab its current task and add it to their list (assuming they have room for it). Be sure to complete at least one task per day to earn the December Research Breakthrough reward as many times as possible during the month.
