Welcome to the latest One More Catch weekly newsletter, offering you a guide to the week ahead in Pokémon Go.
It's a busy period ahead. We tick another unreleased Pokémon off the list in the form of Orthworm, there's three shiny Steel-types to chase, and have a shadow Pokémon-heavy second half of the week with a 'Taken Over' event and a Raid Day on Saturday.
▶️
Also, something new I'm experimenting with: a video version of this newsletter! Below you can listen and watch the week's schedule and opportunities on YouTube. This is a trial I plan to run for the next few weeks - I want to try it out first before fully committing to it - and would love your feedback, whether that's in the comments here or on the video, or by email. Likes would also be welcome - they do seriously help in the eyes of YouTube.
So here's a snapshot of everything coming to Pokémon Go in the days ahead, the biggest opportunities available, and a roundup of Pokémon news and site updates you may have missed.
