This year, Pokémon GO is celebrating its 10th anniversary. And at first, some trainers found the birthday a bit awkward. At least that was the feedback on the 10-Year Anniversary event at the beginning of the month.

But now the birthday summer is developing further. First, there were plenty of free bonuses at the GO Fest, and now the Hyperbonus is taking it up a notch. Starting from July 21, 2026 – that’s when Hyperbonus: 10-Year Edition will kick off.

The exact times: July 21, 2026, 10:00 AM is the start. The end is Monday, July 27, 8:00 PM.

But what is included?

What the Hyperbonus brings: 10-Year Edition

The bonuses are divided by days. Much revolves around the starter Pokémon that you can catch at this event, and with luck, they will have a special background in your team colors. Additionally, there will be plenty of XP bonuses. Listed by days, it looks like this.

  • July 21 – 23, 10:00 AM
    • You will receive six times catch XP
    • Starters from Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn are around
  • July 23 – 25, 10:00 AM
    • eight times catch XP
    • Starters from Sinnoh, Unova, and Kalos are around
  • July 25, 10:00 AM to July 27, 8:00 PM
    • ten times catch XP
    • Starters from Alola, Galar, and Paldea are around

Additionally, lures will attract Tanhel, Kaumalat, and Grolldra on all days, as well as other yet unannounced monsters. In raids, you will encounter Sleima, Rattikarl, Nidorino, Gengar, and Woingenau with party hats.

Also, the starters can learn the top moves of their type through evolution to their highest stage: Hydro Pump (Water), Flamethrower (Fire), and Leaf Storm (Grass).

Lastly, a GO Pass is also active, which can bring you a gold lure module as a highlight.
