Last updated
Ever wondered what a mystery box in Pokemon GO could be? Let’s dive right into this fun-filled topic without wandering around too much.
So, you’re curious about the mystery box in Pokemon GO, right? Well, you’re in for a treat because this little box is packed with surprises!
Short Answer: It’s Your Ticket to Meltan
A mystery box in Pokemon GO is a special item that, when opened, spawns the Mythical Pokemon, Meltan, around you for a limited time. This allows you to catch Meltan, which is pretty awesome.
The way it works is fascinating. You get the mystery box by connecting your Pokemon GO account with either Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu! or Pokemon Let’s Go Eevee! on the Nintendo Switch. After transferring a Pokemon to the Nintendo game, you’ll receive the mystery box in your Pokemon GO inventory. Opening the box then triggers Meltan to appear near you for about an hour.
