1st Anniversary Pokemon GO NIANTIC Today is the official one-year anniversary of the release of Pokémon GO, and we couldn't pass this milestone without some form of celebration. Yet, although one is on the way, as Niantic has just confirmed, it's quite low-key, which may disappoint those looking for something more grandiose. The Anniversary Event, which begins today, July 6th, and goes through July 24th, seems to have two primary components. The first is the debut of "Ash Hat Pikachu," which is exactly what it sounds like. This particular form of Pikachu, like Santa Hat and Party Hat Pikachu before him, will wear Ash's hat on several times in the anime series.

Several of the most eagerly awaited aspects of Pokemon Go are now finally coming to pass. Just a few months have passed since Niantic introduced friends lists and trade, and it was only days ago that research missions provided many trainers a compelling incentive to return to the game. But Niantic wants us to commemorate the game's second anniversary as we wait for player versus. player combat, which may be the next significant update. 2nd Anniversary Event is Here! On July 6, 2016, Pokemon Go had its official debut on the App Store, making today the game's second anniversary. Niantic is holding a special event to commemorate the occasion, during which Pikachu and Pichu will spawn more regularly from now until July 31.
