As we wrap up a season that intriguingly kicks off with Sinistea being sent adrift in the waters of Undella Bay, there’s excitement building for the next in-game chapter.
Last weekend’s Wild Area event in Pokémon Go was just the beginning. This coming weekend promises something with a distinctly Unovan twist. The game has announced the Pokémon Go Tour: Unova, leading a season dubbed “Dual Destinies.” This themed adventure comes with live events scheduled for February 22 and 23 in New Taipei City, Taiwan, and Los Angeles, California. Then, mark your calendars for the global event happening on March 1 and 2. It seems European fans won’t have an on-site gathering, likely due to the European International Championship taking place that same weekend. This marks the third such “Tour” event, following one in Las Vegas in February 2023 and another in the Pasadena/Greater Los Angeles area earlier this year.
If you’re looking to dive into the in-person excitement, tickets are up for grabs now. For those who prefer the global event, you’re in luck—it’s free for everyone. However, an enticing Masterwork Research story can be purchased for an additional fee, offering players the chance to snag a shiny version of the mythical Meloetta, freshly available via Pokémon Home.
Most of the juicy tidbits about the event can be found on its official website. Though many are still tantalizingly under wraps, rumor has it that we might see the much-anticipated debut of the Black 2 and White 2 versions of Kyurem. These versions were accidentally released last year and swiftly swapped back to the standard form, sparking eager anticipation among fans. Keep an eye out for more updates on specific Pokémon that may be spotlighted during the event.
