It’s time to GO! It’s all hands on deck during the Let’s GO event—Professor Willow’s research is running wild, literally! Pansage, Pansear, and Panpour are appearing in the wild all over the world, and lucky Trainers using the Mystery Box might encounter Shiny Meltan! And some Trainers have noticed a shift in the wild Pokémon that Ditto is transforming into—better keep an eye out!

We’ve also received reports that Team GO Rocket might be planning to revamp their efforts and change more species of Pokémon into Shadow Pokémon in their schemes. Stay alert, Trainers!




Bonuses

Reduced waiting time for opening the Mystery Box
2× Candy for transferring Pokémon
Increased chance of finding XXS and XXL Meltan
Increased chance of finding Ditto disguised as other Pokémon

Features

Meltan

The key to catching Meltan is the Mystery Box, which can be obtained by sending a Pokémon from Pokémon GO to Pokémon HOME or the Nintendo Switch titles Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! or Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee!

When you use the Mystery Box during this event, you might encounter Shiny Meltan—if you’re lucky! Trainers will also have an increased chance of finding XXS or XXL Meltan during the event.

In addition, you’ll be able to open the Mystery Box more frequently during the event. The cooldown will be reduced from 3 days to 2 days.
