Mega Lucario, Shiny Togedemaru, and Maushold might be appearing soon with Pokemon GO Ultra Unlock
Maushold [Ultra Unlock Part 1: Better Together]
The first silhouette hints at the Paldean Pokemon, Maushold. The Family Pokemon is a Normal-type pocket monster that evolves from Tandemaus. In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, it has two separate forms - a family of three and a family of four. Niantic's teaser shows the former Maushold form.
The name of the event, "Better Together," also perfectly fits the theme of Maushold.
Ultra Unlock Part 1: Better Together runs from July 17 to July 22 from 10 AM to 8 PM local time.
Shiny Togedemaru [Ultra Unlock Part 2: Strength of Steel]
The Ultra Unlock Part 2: Strength of Steel teaser's silhouette will be easily recognized by trainers as the Gen VII Electric/Steel Roly-Poly Pokemon, Togedemaru. The bottom-right corner of the post states:
"If you're lucky, you might encounter a shiny one!"
This suggests the event might see the debut of Shiny Togedemaru in the mix. The variant sports a beige tone instead of the original grey color.
Ultra Unlock Part 2: Strength of Steel runs from July 25 to July 30 from 10 AM to 8 PM local time.
Mega Lucario [Ultra Unlock Part 3: Mega Raid Day]
And finally, Mega Lucario is likely arriving on Ultra Unlock Part 3: Mega Raid Day. The Pokemon GO community has been waiting for the Aura Pokemon's mega evolved version for a long time now and the announcement will surely have a few heads turning.
Ultra Unlock Part 3: Mega Raid Day takes place on July 27 at 12 PM, 1 PM, 5 PM, and 6 PM local time.
