The excitement is palpable as we approach the much-anticipated Pokémon Go Tour: Unova global event. Scheduled for March 1st and 2nd, this event promises an extensive array of content celebrating the Unova region. But the fun starts even earlier with the Road to Unova event, kicking off on February 24th and running through to March 1st. This pre-event gives you a chance to gear up and jumpstart your adventure before the main festivities.
The concept of a lead-up event isn't new; we've seen similar pre-events in last year's Pokémon Go tours. During the Road to Unova, you'll have ample time to engage in challenges and amass rewards. Whether you're exploring the wilds, tackling raids, or completing challenges, there's something for every type of player.
As part of this lead-up, you'll receive a free Tour Pass automatically. This pass is your key to a progression track where you can complete tasks, earn Tour Points, and unlock various bonuses. For those looking to enhance their experience, the optional Tour Pass Deluxe offers upgraded rewards, including an exclusive encounter with the Mythical Pokémon Victini.
Shiny collectors have a reason to celebrate, too, as Shiny Meloetta will make its debut in Pokémon Go during this event. You can access this opportunity through a Masterwork Research ticket priced at $4.99. The beauty of this special research is that it doesn't expire, allowing you to complete it at your own pace. Additionally, other ticket options are available for event-exclusive bonuses, such as hatch-themed or raid-themed rewards, along with exclusive avatar items.
Here’s a list of redeemable *Pokémon Go codes* for some freebies!
Throughout the Road to Unova, you'll encounter wild Pokémon like Snivy, Tepig, and Oshawott, with the possibility of encountering their evolved forms for the lucky few. Raids will feature a variety of Pokémon, including Genesect with its different drives, Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizion, among others. Each five-star raid offers a chance to catch Pokémon with Special Backgrounds inspired by Pokémon Black and White versions.
