Pokémon GO will take part in the Pokémon 30th Anniversary Mall Explorations event, offering trainers Timed Research and encounters with party hat Pikachu at participating locations across Asia-Pacific. The event begins Oct. 1, 2026, at Ombak KLCC in Malaysia and SM Mall of Asia in the Philippines, with additional stops scheduled in the Philippines and Singapore through March 2027; Hong Kong and Thailand locations will be announced later. Trainers can claim the Timed Research once at any participating mall, though it expires 10 days after it is received, while Lure Module effects will last four hours in designated areas.
