Pokémon GO Tour: Unova (February 21-23, 2025)

This in-person event will take place in Los Angeles (Rose Bowl Stadium) and New Taipei City (Metropolitan Park). Inspired by Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2, the event features themed habitats (Winter Caverns, Spring Soiree, Summer Vacations, Autumn Masquerade) offering diverse Unova region Pokémon. Shiny Deerling variations will appear depending on the habitat and time of day.

Trainers can encounter Shiny Meloetta via Masterwork Research, hatch Shiny Sigilyph, Bouffalant, and others, and potentially find shiny Pikachu with unique hats through Field Research. Legendary Pokémon Reshiram and Zekrom will be Five-Star Raid bosses, Druddigon in Three-Star Raids, and Snivy, Tepig, and Oshawott in One-Star Raids, all with increased shiny rates.

Tickets are available now at a discounted price ($25 USD in Los Angeles, $630 NT in New Taipei City). Add-ons offer extra bonuses like 5,000 XP per raid. The event runs from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time (PST and GMT+8 respectively). Booths and team lounges will offer merchandise and relaxation areas.
