Pokemon GO, the hottest mobile game of 2016, will be celebrating its first year anniversary this summer, and Niantic has celebration plans in store for us. The celebration will kick off this June with a Solstice event, where Fire and Ice Pokemon will be out in full force. There will be huge experience bonuses and other discounts as well. Niantic also teased an upcoming update which will include “group gameplay features.” They didn’t elaborate further, but these could very well be PVP-related.
