As you have probably seen, Pokémon Go has given out a massive reward for their 10th anniversary. It may, to some, seem like a response to the New York City event where invited trainers got a hundo Mewtwo with a very special background. Those who attended that event did not get the hundo Mewtwo given out globally, with the moon background, and instead got random stats. They also did not get the option to keep their Master Ball, which was required for their catch, and this global event did not give them a Master Ball either. It's interesting to see that Pokémon Go picked Mewtwo, as there have been so many different Mewtwo raids, make-up days, and other Mewtwo events lately.
