Niantic has been really creative with the new season 2 which arrived on 9th September. Ultra Bonuses further introduced new Shiny Pokémon and many changes to the Raid battles. Then the Pokemon Go’s September Community Day Challenge brought the third and final wave of Ultra Bonuses as the company teased Gen 5 Pokemon to be making their way in the game this week. Gen-5 Pokemon introduced Shiny Mewtwo, one of the most coveted Pokémon in the game alongside Shiny Altered Form Giratina. Niantic didn’t even miss on the World Tourism Day as the company introduced new Shiny Pokémon as well as specialized Field Research Tasks to complete. And now with the new event, the title has received another exciting event to boast about.
