July is officially here, and that means a variety of new events to look forward to in
Pokemon Go is kicking off July with an Aquatic Paradise event. From July 6-9, a variety of water-type Pokemon will be appearing in the wild more frequently, including Clamperl, Frillish, Staryu, and Ducklett. On top of that, the game will offer a new Collection Challenge to complete, as well as a few bonuses like increased Incense encounters and double XP for catching Pokemon.
Inbound from Ultra Space
Ahead of the global Pokemon Go Fest 2024 celebration, a number of Ultra Beasts are invading raids once again as part of the Inbound from Ultra Space event. Beginning July 8, a different Ultra Beast will appear as a five-star raid boss every few days, giving you another chance to catch these elusive Pokemon.
On top of that, Pokemon Go will offer a number of special Timed Research tasks during the event. Complete these missions to earn various rewards, including additional encounters with the Ultra Beasts. You can purchase a ticket to access this Timed Research through the in-game item shop for $5 USD.
Tynamo Community Day
This month’s Community Day event falls on Sunday, July 21, and stars the electric-type eel Pokemon Tynamo. From 2-5 PM local time, Tynamo will appear in the wild more frequently than usual, and you’ll have a greater chance of encountering a Shiny Tynamo.
In addition to the increased spawns, a few bonuses will be available during July’s Community Day. Lure Modules and Incense will last for three hours rather than their usual durations, and players will earn double the usual amount of candy for catching Pokemon. On top of that, any eggs that are placed into an incubator during the event will hatch at a quarter of the distance they typically require.
Finally, Tynamo’s final form, Eelektross, will be able to learn a special event-exclusive attack during July’s Community Day. Any Eelektrik that you evolve until 10 PM local time will learn the electric-type Fast Attack Volt Switch upon evolving.
