What Is The Research Lab
TPPC has some of the best researchers in the world and their latest discoveries have been nothing but mind-blowing. As much as they love refining Rough Diamonds and Rough Pearls, they've also taken a real interest in the Rubys, Sapphires, and Emeralds that have started appearing. They're convinced that if you can gather enough of each together, they should be able to make something very special.
How To Get There
Simply click the 'Research Lab' link under Challenges.
Converting Items
The researchers require 10 of an item before they can try to clean it up and turn it into something useable. Below is the listing of items the researchers are looking for, as well as how many of each you have. Once you have 10, you'll be able to ask researchers to convert them. Unlike before, the researchers don't need any assistance from Pokémon to experiment on your items, so your starter has no affect on their work.
*Note: The process is still highly experimental. There's no guarantee they'll be able to turn your gems into anything special.
- 10 Rough Diamond > Smooth Diamond
- 10 Rough Pearl > Smooth Pearl
- 10 Ruby Fragment > Ruby Shard
- 10 Sapphire Fragment > Sapphire Shard
- 10 Emerald Fragment > Emerald Shard

For a small fee, the researchers are willing to catalog all of your Pokémon and enter them into your Pokédex. Simply click the 'Catalog My Pokémon!' link if you would like to let a researcher catalog your Pokémon for you.
