June 2021 is expected to be a hectic month for trainers in Pokemon GO.
Already this month, trainers have seen Giovanni’s Shadow Zapdos appear and a shiny Galarian Ponyta makes its debut. In addition, there was a Dwebble Spotlight Hour, as well as a Clamperl becoming available in a Breakthrough box.
However, the best is yet to come for players who are ready to enjoy the start of summer by capturing some really great Pokemon. Much like the beginning of the month, trainers can expect something new to be happening in Pokemon GO almost daily.
