Overview

  • A dual-track Go Pass system will let players choose between a free Max Finale pass and a Deluxe upgrade offering extra Candy, Candy XL and guaranteed access to Eternatus.
  • Eternatus can only be caught once and will demand significantly more Candy and Candy XL than other Legendary raids to power up.
  • Trainers can collect open-world Eternatus spawns over the finale weekend after progressing through Dark Skies raid tiers.
  • The live-now promo code GOFESTMAX rewards one free encounter with Gigantamax Cinderace, Rillaboom or Inteleon.
  • Active Power Spots will increase across the map and Max Particle limits will temporarily rise to help trainers prepare for high-level battles.
