Celebrate With Pikachu: Pokemon GO Rolls Out Details for its 7th Anniversary Party

The official Pokemon GO website has brought exciting news to fans worldwide – the 7th Anniversary Party event is poised to kickstart soon. Lined up to run from 10:00 a.m. on July 6, 2023, till 8:00 p.m. on July 12, 2023, the event promises a plethora of activities for the Pokemon community to enjoy. Among the highlighted happenings, the in-game debut of costumed Wartortle and Blastoise donning party hats is sure to add an extra bit of joy to the experience.

In order to claim these leveling-up costumed Pokemon, fans need to evolve a Squirtle wearing a party hat, adding to the exciting ways of expanding their Pokedex during this event. With festivities in full swing, fans will encounter dressed-up pocket creatures like Squirtle and Pikachu more frequently in the game's wild. To top it off, there's also the tantalizing chance of encountering the shiny versions of these festive creatures.

Adding diversity to the event's timeline, each day, starting July 6, will specifically highlight the three starter Pokemon from each generation, causing them to spawn more frequently within the game's map. This unique 'Pokemon of the day' concept is surely a treat for fans, offering an opportunity to encounter and capture some of their favorite starters.

In line with the anniversary celebration, Pokemon GO raids will be revamped as well. Bosses will now consist of Gen 1 Pokemon, creating a joyfully nostalgic gaming experience. Fans will be engaged with the opportunity to take part in epic battles against Generation 1’s legendary birds in Five-Star Raids and the mighty Mega Blastoise in Mega Raids.

To wrap up, the celebrations will also include notable in-game bonuses and various anniversary-themed Field Research tasks. Not to mention the paid activities such as Timed Research and the Masterwork Research story that intriguingly features the mythical Pokemon Mew! Clearly, the 7th Anniversary Party event promises a thrilling and engaging week for Pokemon GO players, befitting a grand anniversary celebration.
