Black Kyurem and White Kyurem make their Pokémon GO debuts with Pokémon fusion!

Does anyone feel a chill in the air? Black Kyurem and White Kyurem will make their Pokémon GO debuts during Pokémon GO Tour: Unova! All Trainers will be able to experience these forms of Kyurem through a phenomenon known as Pokémon fusion.

Trainers will have a chance to learn more about these forms of Kyurem in the event-exclusive Special Research story.

Black Kyurem and White Kyurem will make their Pokémon GO debuts in five-star raids during Pokémon GO Tour: Unova!

Pokémon fusion is the ability to combine certain Pokémon into a single, more powerful form with an altered appearance. By using DNA Splicers, Kyurem can fuse with Zekrom using Volt Fusion Energy to become Black Kyurem, or it can fuse with Reshiram using Blaze Fusion Energy to become White Kyurem.

Black Kyurem and White Kyurem cannot be traded, transferred to the professor, or transferred to Pokémon HOME.

Trainers will have the opportunity to catch Kyurem* in its unfused form after defeating Black Kyurem or White Kyurem in raids.

Black Kyurem

Trainers can fuse Kyurem and Zekrom using 1,000 Volt Fusion Energy, 30 Kyurem Candy, and 30 Zekrom Candy.

White Kyurem

Trainers can fuse Kyurem and Reshiram using 1,000 Blaze Fusion Energy, 30 Kyurem Candy, and 30 Reshiram Candy.

Fused Kyurem will remain in this form until their Trainer separates them. Separating will not cost any Fusion Energy or Pokémon Candy.

That’s not all! Pokémon GO Tour: Unova – Global will feature two Special Backgrounds for you to collect—one inspired by Pokémon Black Version and one inspired by Pokémon White Version. When you fuse a Reshiram or Zekrom that has a Special Background with a Kyurem that has the opposite color Special Background, the fused Black Kyurem or White Kyurem will have its own variant background! Learn more about Special Backgrounds here.

*If you’re lucky, you might encounter a Shiny one!

A new appearance isn’t the only thing that happens when Pokémon fuse! When you fuse a Kyurem that knows the Charged Attack Glaciate with Zekrom or Reshiram, Glaciate will transform into a new attack!

Black Kyurem’s Freeze Shock

After fusing Zekrom with a Kyurem that knows the Charged Attack Glaciate, Glaciate will transform into the Charged Attack Freeze Shock. Freeze Shock will change back to Glaciate when Zekrom is separated from Kyurem.

White Kyurem’s Ice Burn

After fusing Reshiram with a Kyurem that knows the Charged Attack Glaciate, Glaciate will transform into the Charged Attack Ice Burn. Ice Burn will change back to Glaciate when Reshiram is separated from Kyurem.

*Smeargle that appear via surprise encounters in GO Snapshot can learn attacks from the Pokémon they appear with, but Smeargle can’t learn Freeze Shock or Ice Burn.

Volt Fusion Energy and Blaze Fusion Energy are very rare sources of power that can fuse Kyurem into its powerful alternate forms.

Trainers can obtain early access to Volt Fusion Energy and Blaze Fusion Energy after defeating Black Kyurem or White Kyurem in raids at this year’s in-person Pokémon GO Tour events in Los Angeles and New Taipei City.*

Starting with Pokémon GO Tour: Unova – Global, all Trainers will be able to earn Volt Fusion Energy or Blaze Fusion Energy by defeating Black Kyurem or White Kyurem in raids.

Shiny Meloetta makes its Pokémon GO debut!

It’s music to our ears—for the first time in Pokémon GO, Trainers will be able to encounter Shiny Meloetta! A ticket for Masterwork Research that will lead to an encounter with Shiny Meloetta will be made available to purchase globally. Stay tuned for additional details!

*Masterwork Research does not expire, so you can complete it at your own pace!

The reason for the seasons? Shiny Deerling debuts!

During Pokémon GO Tour: Unova – Global, you’ll be able to encounter Shiny Deerling in Pokémon GO—if you’re lucky!

Deerling, the Season Pokémon, takes on a different appearance during each season. The season-themed habitats will rotate hourly, so be sure to explore each one and encounter them all!

Get Egg-cited for more Shiny Pokémon debuts!

For lucky Trainers, Shiny Maractus, Shiny Sigilyph, and Shiny Bouffalant will be available globally for the first time during Pokémon GO Tour: Unova – Global! Maractus, Sigilyph, and Bouffalant will hatch from 10 km Eggs during the event.
