We now have more details about the Unova Tour in Pokémon GO.

Niantic have unveiled dates, first details and locations for the Unova Tour in Pokémon GO. This event will focus on the Unova Region which debuted in Pokémon Black and White. There are two in-person events, one in the United States and the other in Taiwan. Then there will be a Global event, letting all Trainers get in on the action.

Here are all the details we have right now about what is coming in the Pokémon GO Unova Tour.

Will Black and White Kyurem debut? (again!)

At the moment, we don't know if this event will see the return of Black and White Kyurem into Pokémon GO. We did accidentally see these two Pokémon release as rewards in the GO Battle League in December 2023. This was promptly corrected, but it has driven a lot of excitement about their eventual release.

Currently, Zekrom and Reshiram are listed as appearing in Raids. We do usually get more information as the event approaches, so stay tuned to see if we get these powerful Pokémon during the event.

Pokémon GO Unova Tour Raids:

Five Star:

  • Reshiram
  • Zekrom

Three Star:

  • Druddigon

One Star:

  • Snivy
  • Tepig
  • Oshawott

Shiny Meloetta makes its Pokémon GO debut

For the first time in Pokémon GO Trainers can get their hands on Shiny Meloetta. Trainers attending the in-person event in Los Angeles or Taipei City can gear up for Masterwork Research that will lead to an encounter with Shiny Meloetta. Global Trainers can purchase a Masterwork Research to also get their chance to get Shiny Meloetta.

Event Spawns

There are a huge amount of event spawns, this includes a shiny debut for Deerling, four new costumed Pikachu and then four different habitats of spawns at either event. Some of the highlights include Litwick, Deino, Trubbish, Darumaka, Foongus, Timburr, Audino and Axew.

Shiny Maractus, Shiny Sigilyph, and Shiny Bouffalant will be available globally for the first time during Pokémon GO Tour: Unova – Global. These will be in 10km Eggs during the event.

Pokémon GO Tour: Unova - Los Angeles & Taipei City

The in-person Unova Tour events will take place in Los Angeles and Tapipei City this year. Trainers who attended the Sinnoh Tour will be familiar with the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles, which is the venue once again. The event in Taipei City is being held at the New Taipei Metropolitan Park.

Pokémon GO Tour: Unova - Global

The Global Event will take place in the first weekend in March. Trainers can take part for free all over the world, and get their hands on the same shiny debuts that Trainers in Los Angeles and Taipei City are also getting.

At the moment, there is no Unova Tour Paid Ticket besides the Shiny Meloetta Masterwork.
