Pokémon Go players have been working hard to get their Master Balls from the Let’s Go Special Research. After completing the final step of the new research, fans can finally receive the most powerful Poke Ball for use – but with a catch.
Master Balls are rare in Pokémon Go, but Niantic has confirmed there will be additional opportunities to get them in the future. For now, players can only obtain one Master Ball until further notice.
