==Rework proposal==
I find updating new Field Researches incredibly tiresome given the current format, and overtime, the list becomes very ugly and hard to read. I made a template proposal to help better list the Field Rewards:
: [[User:TehPerson/Research]]

;Example:

{| class="roundy" style="background:#{{grey color}}; border:3px solid#{{night color}}; text-align: center; width:600px"
|- style="color:#fff"
! style="background:#{{night color light}}; {{roundytop|5px}}" | Catching Pokémon
{{User:TehPerson/Research|Catch 10 Pokémon
|item=Stardust|quantity=200|link=Stardust (GO)
|item2=Poké Ball|quantity2=5
|item3=Razz Berry|quantity3=3
|item4=Pinap Berry|quantity4=1
|pkmn=Magikarp|pid=129|shiny=yes
|pkmn2=Teddiursa|pid2=216}}
{{User:TehPerson/Research|Catch a {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon
|item=Stardust|quantity=1500|link=Stardust (GO)
|item2=Ultra Ball|quantity2=10
|item3=Golden Razz Berry|quantity3=2
|item4=Rare Candy|quantity4=3
|pkmn=Dratini|pid=147|shiny=yes}}
{{User:TehPerson/Research|Catch 5 {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon
|pkmn=Breloom|pid=286}}
{{User:TehPerson/Research|Catch 10 {{type|Ground}} Pokémon
|pkmn=Diglett|pid=050|shiny=yes}}
{{User:TehPerson/Research|Catch 10 {{type|Normal}} Pokémon
|item=Stardust|quantity=500|link=Stardust (GO)
|item2=Great Ball|quantity2=5
|item3=Razz Berry|quantity3=6
|item4=Pinap Berry|quantity4=2}}
|}

I'm thinking that we can just separate the Research tasks by the dates they were available in expandable tables, showing the most recent ones on top. And each category "catching pokemon, evolving, etc." gets its own table. [[User:TehPerson|TehPerson]] ([[User talk:TehPerson|talk]]) 07:31, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
:I think it looks cleaner and better so if you say it's easier to work with I say go for it. --[[User:Raltseye|<span style="color:#FF6464">R</span><span style="color:#11BB11">alts</span><span style="color:#6464FF">eye</span>]] [[User talk:Raltseye|prata med mej]] 12:14, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
::I'd probably continue using the menu sprites to be honest, the models are too small, how would you show prior rewards too, specifically by time they were available? --[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] ([[User talk:Spriteit|talk]]) 07:34, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
:::Most of the other online guides tend to like grouping all tasks for a certain period together, like on my [[User:TehPerson/Field_Research|Userspace draft]] (still a work in progress). I'd say we could make a separate List of Field Research tasks list to archive old tasks, and only keep current Field Research tasks on this page.

::::My only issue with that is do we have reliable information for item changes? --[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] ([[User talk:Spriteit|talk]]) 06:17, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
:::::Yes we do. The other online guides are pretty quick to update whenever Field Research shuffles. It's also the case that for most rotations, item rewards very often don't change. [[User:TehPerson|TehPerson]] ([[User talk:TehPerson|talk]]) 14:50, 16 May 2019 (UTC)

== Having trouble editing the grid, but... ==

...sending 10 gifts gives Sneasel, Slakoth's quest is gone, and earning 3 candys walking gives me Ponyta. I can't figure out how to edit the table right; can someone please help me? [[User:Unowninator|¿¡Unowninator?!]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 03:53, 15 October 2019 (UTC)
