Black & White Kyurem Debut with Exclusive Adventure Effects in Pokémon Go Global Tour

Author:Kristen Update:Feb 24,2025

Maximize your Pokémon Go Tour: Unova – Global experience with Black and White Kyurem's unique Adventure Effects!

Black Kyurem's Freeze Shock and White Kyurem's Ice Burn offer significant advantages. Freeze Shock immobilizes wild Pokémon for easier catching, while Ice Burn slows the catch ring for those coveted Excellent Throws. Both effects are initially active for 10 minutes and can be extended in 10-minute increments up to a maximum of 2 hours at a time, with a total duration of 24 hours.

This event introduces a strategic fusion element. Defeat Black or White Kyurem in five-star raids to acquire Fusion Energy. Fusing Zekrom or Reshiram with Kyurem (possessing Glaciate) will grant Kyurem Freeze Shock or Ice Burn respectively, replacing Glaciate. These moves revert to Glaciate upon separation. Note that these moves cannot be learned via Charged TMs or Elite Charged TMs.

Choose your path: The Black Version (Reshiram) badge rewards Reshiram-themed Special Research and grants Glaciate to Kyurem encountered after defeating Black Kyurem. The White Version (Zekrom) badge offers Zekrom-themed Special Research and similarly grants Glaciate to Kyurem encountered after defeating White Kyurem.

The Tour Pass is your key to accelerated progress. It unlocks rewards and boosts Adventure Effects. Earn Tour Points by catching Pokémon, completing raids, and hatching Eggs, or expedite progress via quick Pass Tasks. Reaching Major Milestones increases Catch XP and extends the duration of Freeze Shock or Ice Burn.

For ultimate benefits, consider the Tour Pass Deluxe. This paid upgrade provides an immediate Victini encounter, additional event-themed encounters, an avatar item, and the new Lucky Trinket. The Lucky Trinket guarantees a Lucky Friend status with a chosen friend, enhancing your next trade.

Don't miss out! The Pokémon Go Tour: Unova – Global event runs from February 24th to March 2nd.
