Pokemon GO July 10-16 (2023): Catching Some Z's, Regieleki 5-star raids, and more

With the conclusion of the 7th Anniversary Party event looming ahead, Pokemon GO trainers are looking toward a quieter-than-usual week in the popular AR title. Apart from regular shuffles in raid bosses and GO Battle League, there are no new events to jump into in the middle of the week. The Catching Some Z's event will take place at the tail end.

Niantic has caught flak from the community over the past several months because of their perceived anti-player stance. While bugs, glitches, and technical issues have been a constant, the Remote Raid Pass nerfs finally broke the dam.

Recently, plenty of players faced trouble participating in the Community Day Classic event because of issues with logging in with Pokemon Trainer Club. With the success of the 7th Anniversary event, one can only hope Niantic can build on it without further gaffes.
