Two adorable new Pokémon and a 4x XP bonus? The Better Together Ultra Unlock is a great time to play Pokémon GO.
The first of three Pokémon GO Ultra Unlock events, called Better Together, will see Tandemaus and Maushold enter the game for the first time. The event runs from Wednesday July 17 (10am local) until Monday July 22 (8pm local).
These two family themed Mouse Pokémon are huge fan favourites, and will be a hugely popular addition to the game.
However, what will be even more popular during the Better Together Ultra Unlock event in Pokémon GO is the huge event bonuses. This is going to be a fantastic time to play Pokémon GO.
Here is everything the event has in store.
Pokémon GO Ultra Unlock: Better Together Pokémon Debuts
Two Pokémon will debut in Pokémon GO during the Better Together Ultra Unlock event. They are
Tandemaus  | Maushold  |
You can evolve Tandemaus into Maushold with 50 Candy. There will not be a complicated mechanic in-game, unlike the mainline Pokémon games.
Tandemaus and Maushold cannot be shiny in Pokémon GO (yet).
