According to Serebii.net:

Pokémon GO - Shiny Meltan Event Repeat
It has been confirmed that Shiny Meltan to re-appear in Mystery Boxes in Pokémon GO from April 24th 20:00 UTC to May 5th 20:00 UTC. With this, Mystery Boxes will once again only need 3 days for use.”
GoHub article has yet to come but I’ll edit this post when it exists.
Nice, but doesn’t help me. You need a version of Let’s Go for a Mystery Box… I have the money, but not the time to play an other game. So no Shiny Meltans for me
All the best to those who have the box and have gone to the effort to activate their Meltan-making magic. I’ve only the time for one game, and would rather just keep playing PoGo, than switch to a different game for the weeks or months it would take to activate the boxes.
