Pokémon GO's perfect Mewtwo research keeps tenth-anniversary celebration moving

Pokémon GO continues its tenth-anniversary campaign with free Timed Research leading to a Mewtwo carrying maximum individual values. The reward package also includes a Master Ball and Mega Mewtwo Energy, making it valuable to veteran players as well as returning Trainers. A guaranteed perfect-stat Mewtwo is unusual because raid encounters normally leave IV quality to chance, so the research provides both a powerful battle option and a commemorative collectible.

The event follows an exceptionally strong July in which anniversary celebrations and Pokémon GO Fest helped push monthly revenue to its highest level in roughly four years. Scopely is using Mewtwo as a focal point for the broader anniversary period, with additional Mega-related activities continuing to build toward later events. Players should remember that the research is time-limited and needs to be completed rather than simply claimed permanently.

Pokémon GO's ability to create renewed engagement around globally familiar creatures remains one of the main reasons the game has survived for a decade. The anniversary demonstrates that meaningful universal rewards can be more effective at bringing former users back than simply adding another temporary cosmetic or login bonus.
