While working through all of that research, players may notice that, once again, Spinda looks a little different this month. Much like Unown, Spinda has a large number of variations that could potentially all appear in Pokemon GO. So far, it seems like Niantic’s plan is to rotate a new Spinda pattern with each month’s Field Research rotations.

This set of passes put players against the legendary Psychic-type Deoxys, and while many were expecting a challenge, some have managed to breeze through.
