Remember Pokémon Go? That game that made us all get off our asses and go outside for a summer? Well, they’re still doing that, in fact, they have been for about a year. In celebration of the title’s one-year anniversary, developer Niantic is letting you catch a special Pikachu.

The Pikachu in question is wearing the iconic hat of Pokémon anime protagonist Ash Ketchum, as you can see in a tweet from the official Pokémon Twitter below.

In addition to the Pikachu, a limited-time anniversary item pack is being added. You’ll be able to grab a bunch of incubators, max revives, and ultra balls at a discounted rate. You have until July 24 to grab that Pikachu, so good luck!
