Pokémon GO Tour: Unova Event Brings Black and White Kyurem

Get ready, Pokémon GO trainers! Black and White Kyurem are finally arriving in Pokémon GO as part of the global GO Tour: Unova event, scheduled for March 1st and 2nd. These highly anticipated Legendary Pokémon will be available in raids, offering players a chance to catch both their standard and shiny forms. The event also includes special in-game backgrounds inspired by the original Pokémon Black and White games.

The arrival of Black and White Kyurem fulfills a long-standing wish for many fans. While a surprise early release occurred in 2023, their official inclusion in the Unova-themed event makes perfect sense. Their presence promises a significant shift in the game's competitive landscape.

Niantic's announcement confirms the appearance of Black and White Kyurem in raids during the GO Tour: Unova event (March 1st and 2nd, 10 AM to 6 PM local time). Shiny versions will also be available for capture.

Fusion Frenzy:

Similar to last year's Necrozma fusion, trainers can fuse Kyurem with other Legendary Pokémon:

• Black Kyurem: Fuse with Zekrom using 1,000 Volt Fusion Energy, 30 Kyurem Candy, and 30 Zekrom Candy. Learns the move Freeze Shock.
• White Kyurem: Fuse with Reshiram using 1,000 Blaze Fusion Energy, 30 Kyurem Candy, and 30 Reshiram Candy. Learns the move Ice Burn.

Fusion Energy is earned by defeating Kyurem in raids. Separating the fused forms is free.

Event Bonuses:

Two special backgrounds, themed after Pokémon Black and White, will be awarded. Unlocking both requires fusing both Black and White Kyurem.

With the GO Tour: Unova event just around the corner, trainers have a packed weekend of exciting challenges and rewards awaiting them!
