If you are referring to miracles submitted for a cause for canonization, the pope does not investigate. That is left to the Sacred Congregation for the Causes of Saints. They investigate the proposed miracle and interview the people involved. Once they investigate thoroughly, they decide if they feel there was a genuine miracle that could not be attributed to natural causes. They then submit their report to the pope.

What can be said about the beatification of Pope John Paul II?
A:Pope Benedict, wishing to move quickly to the beatification of his predecessor, waived the customary five year waiting period and allowed the investigation into John Paul's life and virtues to begin immediately.In addition to a virtuous life, one miracle was required to be accepted as valid by the Church for Pope John Paul's beatification. The sole miracle was the cure of a young French nun from Parkinson's disease, which had initially seemed like the perfect case for a miracle as the Vatican fast-tracked John Paul's beatification. The nun, who suffered from the same disease that ravaged John Paul for years, had prayed to him for relief and one morning two months after John Paul died, woke up completely, inexplicably cured. This has been criticised as not a proven cure: i) Parkinson's disease takes years and could return; ii) only an autopsy can prove whether Sister Marie Simon-Pierre really suffered from Parkinson's or from another neurological disease which has similar symptoms as Parkinson's but which can be cured. It is also reported that Sister Marie Simon-Pierre subsequently had a relapse. On the evidence, it appears that no posthumous miracle can really be attributed to Pope John Paul II.Nevertheless his beatification will stand and, with the requirement now reduced from three to two miracles for canonisation, only one further miracle would be recognised by the Church for John Paul's canonisation as a saint. Once again, speed is of the essence, and in the absence of a credible second miracle, Pope Francis decided to proceed to the canonisation of Pope John Paul II in April 2014 without the normal requirement for a further miracle.
