Pokemon GO has exciting news for fans with the announcement of a new Tour Pass, available starting February 24. This pass is part of the highly anticipated Pokemon GO Tour, which this year celebrates the Unova region, bringing with it Gen 5-themed wild encounters, raids, and egg spawns.
The Pokemon GO Tour is an annual event that coincides with Pokemon Day and focuses on a different region each year. The inaugural event in 2021 celebrated Kanto and introduced nine new shiny Pokemon, including Mew and Ditto. Last year's event spotlighted Sinnoh, introducing Pikachu variants with unique accessories and the Origin Formes of Dialga and Palkia.
In preparation for Pokemon GO Tour 2025, Niantic has introduced a new Tour Pass that will be accessible from February 24 at 10 am until March 2 at 6 pm local time. Every player will receive a free version of the pass. To enhance their pass, players can earn Tour Points by engaging in activities such as completing daily tasks, catching Pokemon, participating in raids, and hatching eggs. Progressing through the Tour Pass will unlock Minor and Major milestones, rewarding players with items like candy and stickers. Those who reach the ultimate milestone will encounter a Zorua with a unique background. All rewards must be claimed by March 9 at 6 pm, as they will expire at that time.
Pokemon GO Announces New Pass in Anticipation of Unova's GO Tour
The standard Tour Pass is free, but for those looking for extra perks, a deluxe version will be available for $14.99 through the Pokemon GO Webstore from February 24 at 10 am to March 2 at 6 pm. The deluxe pass includes all rewards from both the free and paid tracks, an encounter with the Mythical Pokemon Victini, and the new Lucky Trinket item. This item, used once, transforms a friend into a Lucky Friend, ensuring the next trade results in a Lucky Pokemon and resetting the Lucky Friend status afterward. Additionally, a deluxe pass variant with 10 unlocked ranks will be sold for $19.99. All rewards and the Lucky Trinket from the deluxe pass will be available until March 9 at 6 pm.
The Tour Pass for Unova's GO Tour is designed to heighten the excitement for the event. Players can look forward to the debut of Kyurem Black and White through fusion, reminiscent of Necrozma's appearance at last year's GO Tour, and the introduction of shiny Meloetta via a ticketed Masterwork Research.
