A global event, Pokémon GO Tour: Unova - Global, will run from March 1st to 2nd, 2025, offering a ticketless opportunity for all players to participate.

Iconic Legendaries from Pokémon Black and White 2
Kyurem, Reshiram, Zekrom, and Meloetta originated in Pokémon Black and White. Black and White 2 introduced Kyurem's alternate forms, capable of learning Ice Burn and Freeze Shock, mirroring their Pokémon GO counterparts. This limited-time event brings the complete Unova experience to Pokémon GO.
