Get ready for summer with Pokémon GO Fest 2022’s Ultra Unlocks!

Get ready for summer with Pokémon GO Fest 2022’s Ultra Unlocks!

Trainers,

We’re beyond excited to detail Pokémon GO Fest 2022’s Ultra Unlocks!

We can’t wait to see everybody at this year’s in-person Pokémon GO Fest events! Whether it’s during our global Pokémon GO Fest event or the live events in Berlin, Seattle, or Sapporo, there are loads of ways to get in on the fun!

Unlike past years, this year’s Ultra Unlock will not be a single event. Instead, Trainers will have certain Global Challenges to complete during each Pokémon GO Fest event—such as defeating a certain number of Team GO Rocket members—which, if completed, will unlock an upgraded version of a later event during the Season of GO!

Because there are multiple Pokémon GO Fest celebrations happening this year, Trainers all over the world will have multiple chances to trigger specific Ultra Unlock bonuses. The initial two-day global event on Saturday, June 4, 2022, and Sunday, June 5, 2022 will have its own hourly Global Challenges on Saturday to trigger the first Ultra Unlock bonus, and the in-person Pokémon GO Fest events that follow will also have their own unique Global Challenges tied to Ultra Unlocks for events later in the Season.

Even if you can’t make it to the events in Berlin, Seattle, or Sapporo, you’ll still be able to play along wherever you are and help make progress toward those Ultra Unlock bonuses!

Trainers will be able to earn Ultra Unlock bonuses by completing Global Challenges during the following events.

Global Pokémon GO Fest: If Trainers complete at least 20 Global Challenges, they’ll earn Ultra Unlock bonuses for Adventure Week.

Pokémon GO Fest Berlin: If Trainers complete this event’s Global Challenge, they’ll earn Ultra Unlock bonuses for the anniversary event.

Pokémon GO Fest Seattle: If Trainers complete this event’s Global Challenge, they’ll earn Ultra Unlock bonuses for a to-be-revealed event.

Pokémon GO Fest Sapporo: If Trainers complete this event’s Global Challenge, they’ll earn Ultra Unlock bonuses for a to-be-revealed event.

Information about each event’s Ultra Unlock bonuses will be revealed within one weekday after the corresponding Pokémon GO Fest event ends. Look out for updates via social media, in-game news, and push notifications. Let’s GO get ready to earn some Ultra Unlock bonuses!
