Final Fantasy 7 Remake Battle Intel Guide
If you follow the main story you will eventually be introduced to Chadley, a young Shrina employee who wants to help develop brand new Materia. He provides you with regular Battle Intel challenges in the form of Reports. Each Report has an objective that must be completed. Once a Battle Intel Report has been completed, return to Chadley and he will express his gratitude for your help and unlock the Materia. Most Materia you have to purchase from him but others, such as Summons, are automatically unlocked without having to pay for them.
