Everything else you need to know about the Fifth Anniversary event in Pokémon Go

The Fifth Anniversary event in Pokémon Go sees the release of a new Flying Pikachu who is holding a 5-shaped balloon.

Once you’ve caught this special Pikachu, it’s time to start hunting down shiny Darumaka or shiny Meltan, which may appear when you activate the Mystery Box during this event.

The Jump-Start Special Research will also be available for any player who missed it during last year’s anniversary. You simply need to play Pokémon Go during this event and, if you haven’t started or completed this quest line already, it will automatically unlock.

Throughout the Fifth Anniversary event, you can also expect to encounter the Pokémon listed below more frequently:

• Bulbasaur
• Charmander
• Squirtle
• Treecko
• Torchic
• Mudkip
• Snivy
• Tepig
• Oshawott

All of the starter Pokémon currently released in Pokémon Go will also be attracted to Lure Modules throughout the event. Additionally, every Lure Module – from Rainy or regular – will last for an hour throughout the event.

Finally, you’ll be able to battle Darumaka, Chespin, Fennekin, Froakie and Flying Pikachu in one-star raids!

April 2022 introduces the Silent Schemes event, which requires learning new Leader counters and Giovanni counters. Elsewhere, we’ve recently seen new Ditto disguises as part of the Season of Alola, which also introduced An Akala Adventure and more Gen 7 Pokémon including Fomantis and Tapu Lele. Elsewhere, off the back of the Go Tour Johto event is Masterwork Research Apex to complete.

How the Fifth Anniversary Collection Challenge works in Pokémon Go

Collection Challenges in Pokemon Go, which were first released in January 2021, run alongside certain in-game events. Each Collection Challenge tasks you with finding a specific number of Pokémon through a number of means.

Once you’ve completed the Collection Challenge by acquiring all of the required Pokemon, you’ll be rewarded with a number of items and progress for your Elite Collector medal.

The Fifth Anniversary Collection Challenge, along with the Fifth Anniversary event, runs from Tuesday, 6th July at 10am (local time) to Thursday, 15th July at 8pm (local time).

Collection Challenges can be found on the ‘Today View,’ which is accessed by pressing the field research button (the little binoculars) in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen.

After accessing ‘Today View,’ you’ll find the list of Pokémon you need to obtain to complete the Collection Challenge. Once you’ve found one of the Pokémon, it will be ticked off the Collection Challenge rooster, which will help you keep track of which ones you’ve caught and which you haven’t.

Remember – the Collection Challenge must be completed before its associated event ends and it vanishes forever.

Enjoy Pokémon Go’s fifth anniversary!
