    July Community Day
    As per previous Community Days, a new shiny variant and exclusive move will be added to the roster of Pokémon available in Pokémon Go.


    First off, the shiny variant of the Squirtle line will be added to the games,
    and any Blastoise evolved in the 3 hour period will obtain the exclusive move Hydro Cannon.

    Here's quick look at the normal and shiny sprites:

    Additionally, it was also announced that completing research tasks during the event gives players a chance to encounter a Squirtle wearing Sunglasses!
    It is not known whether Sunglasses Squirtle can be shiny, and also not known what variant of sunglasses the Squirtle will bear.

    Here's a mockup on what it *may* look like.
