Pokémon GO Wild Area: Global
For the brave, adventure awaits around every corner—are you ready to venture into the Wild Area?
Following in the footsteps of Pokémon GO Fest and Pokémon GO Tour, this brand new event is coming in November! Pokémon GO Wild Area 2024 will invite Trainers into an unexplored expanse populated by Electric- and Poison-type Pokémon—a place that just might be hiding encounters with some unusually powerful Pokémon…
Put your skills to the test and try to catch mighty Pokémon in the wild with your trusty Poké Balls—or use the new GO Safari Ball to improve your odds! Ticket-holding Trainers who set forth into this exciting new area will get to choose whether to focus on Electric- or Poison-type Pokémon as they take a deep dive into Toxtricity, the Punk Pokémon.
Trainers who purchase a Pokémon GO Wild Area: Global ticket by October 22—and play Pokémon GO between October 15 and October 22—will receive Timed Research that awards early access to a themed avatar item, the Toxel Mask.
Get ready for adventure in the GO Wild Area!
