Pokemon GO 7th Anniversary Party: Schedule, event bonuses, wild encounters, raid bosses, and more 

As the 7th Anniversary Party comes online in Pokemon GO, trainers around the world are in for a treat during the next few days. Celebrating seven years since the popular AR title's release back in 2016, Niantic has stacked the deck with a number of exciting offerings, such as day-specific event bonuses, the possibility of Shiny Kanto Legendary Birds in 5-star raids, a chance to catch Shiny Mew, and more.

Shiny Mew will be available as part of the All-in-One #151 Masterwork Research questline. You can purchase the ticket for the same for $5 (or their local currency equivalent). While the questline can be completed any time, you need to purchase the ticket before Wednesday, July 12, 2023, at 8 pm local time.
