Introduced back in Generation, Squirtle is a Water-type pocket monster that was one of the three starters of Kanto. The Tiny Turtle Pokemon can evolve into Wartortle in Pokemon GO with the help of 25 Candy. The latter can then go on to evolve into Blastoise with the help of a further 100 Candy.

Given that Squirtle is Pokemon No. 0007, it perfectly fits the ongoing theme of the 7th Anniversary Party event. Amidst much fanfare and hoi polloi celebrations, Niantic re-introduced the ticketed Shiny Mew All-in-One #151 Masterwork Research questline to catch the elusive creature in-game.
