Niantic is continuing to announce new events and content for Pokémon GO. Read on below to learn more:
Pokémon GO Fest is a celebration of friendship and community, so it’s only appropriate that the Mythical Pokémon Shaymin—the Gratitude Pokémon—should appear during this year’s event! Join Trainers around the world on Saturday, June 4, 2022, and Sunday, June 5, 2022, to unlock rewards, earn bonuses, and so much more.
On the second day of the event, a certain Pokémon will be making its Pokémon GO debut in five-star raids. To help face this new challenge, ticket holders will be able to receive up to nine free Raid Passes by spinning Photo Discs at Gyms.
Tickets for Pokémon GO Fest 2022 are available now for US$14.99† and include access to event gameplay on both Saturday and Sunday. Each event day will feature a different experience—and, in a Pokémon GO Fest first, a special finale event will take place on Saturday, August 27, 2022! All Trainers who purchase tickets for the global event in June will be granted a ticket for the finale event at no extra charge.
Read on to learn more about what you can expect this year!
On Saturday, June 4, 2022, from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. local time, all Trainers will enjoy the following features regardless of whether they have an event ticket.

This year’s event is all about Shaymin, the Gratitude Pokémon! Trainers will be tasked with conducting Special Research to learn more about this Mythical Pokémon and will encounter Land Forme Shaymin along the way. Other rewards will include an event-exclusive avatar item and a special avatar pose.
Trainers will be faced with two important decisions while conducting their Special Research. Please note: it won’t be possible to change your selections, so be sure to make your choices carefully!
Personalize your event experience! Choose between Relaxed, Standard, and Master difficulty levels for your Special Research. The difficulty level you select will affect which sticker you receive as a reward, but will otherwise not change your Special Research rewards.
How do you like to play Pokémon GO? Select the gameplay focus you’d prefer—either Catch, Explore, or Battle—and certain Special Research tasks will change accordingly.
In addition to the Pokémon featured during each habitat hour, the following Pokémon will be attracted to Incense if you have an event ticket.
For the first time in Pokémon GO, you’ll be able to encounter Shiny Unown B—if you’re lucky!
Make progress on your Elite Collector medal with four Collection Challenges, each themed after a habitat hour.
The Global Challenge Arena is back! On Saturday, ticket holders will be able to work together to complete a collaborative challenge each hour. If they succeed, they’ll earn a bonus for the remainder of the hour! You can check the Today View to keep track of global progress and the contributions of your friends.
During event hours, you’ll have an increased chance of encountering Shiny Pokémon in the wild when using Incense! Your chances will be better on Saturday than on Sunday.
