As a part of the Pokémon GO 7th Anniversary celebrations, Niantic announced a special Masterwork Research event called All-in-One #151, the reward from which is an encounter with a Shiny Mew.
Of course, a Pokémon of this rarity was always going to be a hot item and while the path to this encounter is one that is relatively clear, there is an awful lot to do — this is a Masterwork Research, after all. With this in mind, we have laid out all of the steps that you will need to take in order to come into contact with the legendary Pokémon.
In the following guide, we will cover how to get involved in the All-in-One #151 Masterwork Research, the tasks that you will have to complete and the rewards that are available along the way.
Let's go catch 'em all.
How To Catch Shiny Mew - All-In-One #151 Masterwork Research Tasks
All-In-One #151 Times And Dates
Launching as part of the Pokémon GO 7th Anniversary Celebrations, this is a ticketed event. That means only have a limited time to begin the All-in-One #151 Masterwork Research, though once you have started it you can complete the tasks at your own pace.
You can get an event ticket for £4.99 / $5 via the in-game shop from 10am local time on 6th July 2023 to 8pm local time on 12th July 2023. Ticket holders will gain entry to the Masterwork Research story and must open Pokémon GO at least once between these dates to begin the first step.
Once you have opened the app and received the Masterwork Research, you can complete it at any time.
This Masterwork Research was previously run back in 2021 and, unfortunately, if you purchased a ticket to Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto during this time, you will not be able to buy one for the All-in-One #151 event.

@VioletSword How can you say this? Shiny Mew is always worth it, it is the ultimate prize for Pokémon fans, something as valuable as Shiny Mew cannot just be given away, and this challenge shows it.
I got the original back in 2021.
It was okay, it took a REALLY long time to complete and there were points where I thought I’d never complete it. It’s still not as bad as other Masterwork Research introduced later (looking at you, Wish Granted and Apex).
@siestasagrada To be fair some of the Research tasks are infamous in GO history. The Platinum Kanto Dex medal task requires the dex to be completely filled (remember that it includes Regionals and rare spawns like Farfech’d, Kangaskhan, Mr. Mime, and Tauros), sending 151 gifts to friends can be an absolute pain if your friends list has a lot of people that “gift stack”, catching a Pokémon 30 days in a row is tedious and can easily set you back if you miss a day, getting your Trainer Level to 40 is a back-breaking task the requires a serious level of dedication to taking advantage of every single EXP-boosting event Niantic does (and if you want to do it quickly, some more cash), and spinning 151 Poke Stops is can be tedious-if-not-impossible if you’re a rural player.
Some of these tasks have been made a bit easier thanks to changes made by Niantic (Farfech’d and Mr. Mime are a bit easier to get thanks to their Galarian variants) but it’s still a serious slog that people should know about before buying the ticket.
