Pokémon Go’s seventh anniversary is here, which means Niantic is ready to pile on some celebratory content that includes new research tasks to complete, encounters with rare Pokémon, and much more. The 7th Anniversary Party will run from July 6 to 12, and players have plenty of ways to get in on the fun.
To start, Starter Pokémon from Gen I to VII will all be appearing more frequently, meaning players can catch and train them up far easier than normal. There are even certain spawns that will be increased on specific days, and the Legendary Birds of Kanto—Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres—will all be featured in five-star raids.
Outside of the event spawns, players can purchase a $5 event ticket to access a reworked version of the Masterwork Research from 2021’s Pokémon Go Tour: Kanto. All of the tasks and rewards are exactly the same, with the exception of giving anyone who completes it a guaranteed Shiny Mew.
That alone is worth it for players like me who were already going to complete most of the tasks on hand, though the price tag might be a turn-off for anyone looking to go free-to-play. And, like other Masterwork Research offerings, these pages will take plenty of time to clear, so don’t expect instant rewards.

There is also a normal piece of paid Timed Research that costs $2 and is much easier. It also gives out some sweet rewards. Here is how to get them all.
