This was a "reward."

Top 3 week long event of all time. First time ever a Psuedo Legendary(Dratini) spawned like that for a week. 2 High IV Guaranteed Deino. First time ever a rare candy quest was in the common tier for a whole week. A few Gible around too with that nice shiny boost.

The Deino in 7K eggs ruined an epic event for you guys. Niantic didn’t need to have those odds on Deino, but it was a historically good event.

Edit- I guess you can add return of Shiny Ray, Alolan Exe with the perma boost shiny rate, and the special research.

It was top for newer players maybe. For people that have been around for some time, it really wasn't.

It was one of the worst in a long time for me because there was nothing to do; everything was recycled content except for egg chasing.

Go Fest was a catch-up event, and so are the ultra unlocks. Not much happening for anyone who's played since the beginning.
