Pokemon Mastery
How Field Notes work, how species get mastered, and which rewards are tied to the mastery ladder.
Contents
Pokemon Mastery is the species-wide collection system built around Field Notes.
The basic idea
Every species has a small note checklist. Completing the required notes masters that species.
The system is split into:
- Core Notes: the required checklist
- Bonus Notes: extra prestige notes that do not block mastery
This matters because not every species is available the same way. Legendary, event-only, and limited species do not get punished with impossible requirements.
What usually counts
Depending on the species, Field Notes can ask you to:
- catch the species
- archive it in Eco Dome
- log repeat work on the species
- record variant progress
- train an elite specimen to level 100
Limited species use lighter profiles so the checklist stays fair.
What mastering a species gives
Mastering a species is a one-time reward.
You get:
- a species mastery reward
- progress toward total mastery milestones
- visible mastery prestige in the Pokedex and inspect flow
Mastery milestones
There is also an account-wide mastery ladder.
Key milestone checkpoints currently include:
- 10 mastered species
- 25 mastered species
- 50 mastered species
- 100 mastered species
- 200 mastered species
Those are the bigger prestige moments where titles, badges, frames, and stronger reward bundles start to matter.
Why mastery matters
Mastery gives normal species long-term value. Instead of only caring about the rarest pull, you get a reason to keep working through the Pokedex one species at a time.
