The Mystery Box Holds the Key to Catching Meltan
We now know that Meltan appears in Pokemon GO. In order to catch Meltan, it is essential to have a Mystery Box, which can be received by sending Pokemon from Pokemon GO to Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! or Pokemon: Let’s Go, Eevee!.
Sending Pokemon from Pokemon GO into one of the Nintendo Switch titles will get you certain items in the app, such as Candies for the species of Pokemon you sent. However, the first time you send a Pokemon, you’ll also be able to get a very special item: a Mystery Box!
The Mystery Box closes itself after it’s used once. The only way to open it again is to wait a set amount of time, and then send another Pokemon to Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! or Pokemon: Let’s Go, Eevee! You can also get a Mystery Box for sending Pokemon to a friend’s Nintendo Switch game, but you can only have one Mystery Box at a time!
Meltan will begin to appear once a Mystery Box is opened in Pokemon GO, but be careful—they’ll only appear for the player that opened the Mystery Box. Touch a Meltan you see on the field map, and then try to catch it with a Poke Ball!
You can then bring the Meltan you catch in Pokemon GO to Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! or Pokemon: Let’s Go, Eevee!, where it can follow you around during your adventure in the Kanto region. Even if you don’t catch Meltan in Pokemon GO yourself, you can ask a friend to send one that they’ve caught into your Nintendo Switch game.
Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokemon: Let’s Go, Eevee! are due out for Switch on November 16.
