What’s New
Rally together with millions of Trainers worldwide for the grand conclusion of this year’s GO Fest events with Pokémon GO Fest 2025: Max Finale! This unticketed event can be joined from anywhere in the world with the free GO Pass: Max Finale!
Trainers level 13 and above can brave a weeklong gauntlet of raids, Max Battles, and more for the chance to battle and catch every Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon that has appeared in Pokémon GO so far, plus the newly arrived Legendary Pokémon Eternatus.
Eternatus descends from the sky worldwide.
The emergence of Eternatus heralds the biggest challenge in Max Battles yet. Encounter Eternatus through the new GO Pass: Max Finale, and battle Eternamax Eternatus in Max Battles during Pokémon GO Fest 2025: Max Finale!
Defeating this powerful Pokémon in Max Battles grants large quantities of Eternatus Candy and Eternatus Candy XL, which you can use to power up your own Eternatus. Eternatus is an extraordinarily powerful Pokémon that requires much more Candy than other Pokémon to power up.
Eternatus
The Gigantic Pokémon Eternatus emerges for its Pokémon GO global debut!
Encounter the Poison- and Dragon-type Legendary Pokémon as you progress through a Max Battle adventure with GO Pass: Max Finale, which starts during the Dark Skies event.
Eternatus can only be caught once during this event, and it requires much more Candy and Candy XL to power up due to its massive power. GO Pass: Max Finale and GO Pass Deluxe: Max Finale will provide significant amounts of Eternatus Candy and Candy XL.
Pokémon GO Fest 2025: Max Finale is coming soon!
