Ultra Beasts Arrive In Pokémon Go Global Event Later This Month

Throughout 2022’s Pokémon Go Fest events in cities like Seattle, Berlin, and Sapporo, Ultra Beasts, wormhole-dwelling creatures introduced in Gen VII’s Pokémon Sun and Moon, have appeared for trainers to catch. These events, or the virtual ones earlier in the year, are not available to you. You have missed an opportunity to get them. However, that changes later this month, as the four Ultra Beasts are set to gather during the Pokémon Go Fest 2022: Finale event.

Finale is an event trainers worldwide can enjoy, regardless of their location. In addition to the Ultra Beasts, participating trainers will encounter other Pokémon they may not usually see in the wild, as well as the Mythical Pokémon Shaymin, who can be obtained by completing special research missions. Also, this event concludes the story of Professor Willow’s being taken into the Ultra Wormhole. The Ultra Beasts available in Pokémon Go through this event include Pheromosa, Nihilego, Buzzwole, and Xurkitree.

Daily Adventure Incenses were also added to the game. The incenses are available for use once daily and can last up to 15 minutes. This special daily item can attract Pokémon not typically found in your area and can even pull in Legendary Pokémon. 

Since the game’s launch in 2016, Pokémon Go has expanded well beyond the original 151 creatures. As of this writing, you can now catch, train, and battle more than 700 Pokémon throughout your travels. The Pokémon Go Fest 2022: Finale is set to happen on Saturday, August 27, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. local time.
