First Details Revealed for Pokémon Go Tour Event – News

As we wrap up the season that kicks off with a splash at Undella Bay with Sinistea, a fresh wave of excitement is headed our way in Pokémon Go.

After last weekend’s action-packed Wild Area event, players can now gear up for another thrilling experience, this time with a unique twist from the Unova region. Pokémon Go is bringing its fans the Pokémon Go Tour: Unova, which serves as the grand finale for a season aptly named “Dual Destiny.”

This event promises to be special with live, in-person gatherings set for February 22 and 23, taking place in vibrant locations like New Taipei City, Taiwan, and Los Angeles, California. Then, on March 1 and 2, players around the world can join the fun in a global event. Unfortunately for European fans, there won’t be any local events due to the European International Championship happening simultaneously. This marks the third “Tour” event after previous gatherings in Las Vegas earlier this year and the Pasadena/greater Los Angeles area.

Tickets are already up for grabs for those looking to attend in person, while the global event will be accessible for free to everyone. For those looking for an extra challenge and reward, there’s a purchasable option for an extended “Masterwork Research” story. Completing this will earn you a shiny version of the mythical Pokémon Meloetta, newly available through Pokémon Home.

For those eager to know more, details are live on the event’s website. Keep an eye out for further announcements, especially about the specific Pokémon that will feature during the event. Rumors suggest we might finally see the official debut of the Black 2 and White 2 box art versions of Kyurem, which made a brief and accidental appearance last year before being withdrawn in favor of the standard Kyurem form. Stay tuned for more updates as the dates draw nearer!
