To mark the 10th anniversary of Pokémon GO in 2026, developer Niantic is rewarding its player base with a free, maxed-out Mewtwo. This gift serves as the centerpiece of the game's milestone celebrations, aimed at both long-term veterans and returning trainers.
Claiming Your Anniversary Reward
The maxed-out Mewtwo is available to all players globally. To receive the Pokémon, ensure your game client is updated to the latest 2026 version. You can claim the gift directly through the in-game shop interface during the anniversary event window. No specific level or previous raid participation is required to qualify for this reward.
What Does 'Maxed-Out' Include?
The Mewtwo provided by this event comes fully powered up to the current level cap, saving players the typical investment of Candy and Stardust required to reach maximum combat power. Because this is a static event reward, the Pokémon will arrive with a standardized moveset optimized for high-level play.
