To celebrate the 4th anniversary of Pokemon GO, Niantic will challenge you: perform various tasks to unlock bonuses during Pokémon GO Fest 2020. Many new Gen 5 and shiny Pokémon are on the program!

Pokémon GO’s fourth anniversary event

Week 1: Skill Challenge

The first challenge is that of skills, which will take place from July 3, 2020 at 8 a.m. to July 8, 2020 at 10 p.m., coinciding with the dates of Pokémon GO anniversary.

Whether you are a skilled Trainer or a simple novice, whether you have a thousand steps on your counter or only a hundred, whether you know how to make effect throws or not at all, you will have to prove yourself when this first challenge precisely focused on Capture! Work on your throw to catch the most Ducklett or Flying Pikachu before they fly to other skies!

Event: Let's celebrate the 4th anniversary of Pokémon GO!

To celebrate the 4th anniversary of Pokémon GO, Niantic is rising! So, in addition to Pokémon wearing Party hats, you will be able to meet many more Flying-type Pokémon like Ducklett, or even a Flying Pikachu! With any luck, you will see it shine in the sky.

This anniversary event will also mark the return of Jump-Start Special Research, so don't worry about it if you missed it last year, because you can get the same rewards, such as a shiny Eevee, or 120 Dratini candies!

Finally - and if Niantic doesn't cancel it - a special Ho-Oh Raid weekend is planned from Friday July 3, 2020 at 8 a.m. to Monday July 6, 2020 at 10 a.m. So make sure you have Raid Passes if you still haven't gotten the golden version of this legendary Pokémon!
