After July, it’s going to be hard for any month to compare to the level of excitement Pokemon GO reached with GO Fest 2020. The mobile AR game saw player spending at close to an all-time high and there were events firing off nearly every day of the month. That said, August is ready to see if it can complete.
There may not be a worldwide anniversary event in August, but the month is going to kick off the Ultra Bonus events that were earned during GO Fest. Those special features and spawns combined with a new Research Breakthrough, Community Day, and other events should help keep Pokemon GO players busy throughout the coming four weeks.
Things will be kicking off tomorrow with the appearance of a new August Research Breakthrough (and hopefully players will be happier than they were with the July Research Breakthrough) and the first week of Ultra Bonus Rewards will also be live. For players who want to keep track of exactly what is coming to the game over the next few weeks, Game Rant has a full outline of everything so trainers can start marking their calendars now…

At this point, those are all of the confirmed events coming during August 2020. There’s always a chance that we’ll be surprised with some additions, so be sure to keep an eye out for updates.
As trainers continue working through these amazing events, they may want to keep hunting down the best Unova Pokemon in the game if improving their Battle Raid rosters and completing their Pokedex is their primary goal. Be sure to check back in the near future for more Pokemon GO strategy guides, news, and updates. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!
Pokemon GO is available now in select regions on Android and iOS devices.
