Pokémon Go Tour: Unova’s global leg will see the debuts of Black Kyurem and White Kyurem with new Adventure Effects

by Benjamin Mar 17,2025

The Pokémon Go Tour: Unova – Global event brings the legendary Black Kyurem and White Kyurem, each boasting unique Adventure Effects to enhance your catching experience. Black Kyurem's Freeze Shock temporarily immobilizes wild Pokémon, making captures significantly easier. White Kyurem's Ice Burn slows the target ring, improving your accuracy for Excellent Throws. Both effects are initially active for 10 minutes, extendable in 10-minute increments up to a maximum of 2 hours per session, and a total of 24 hours.

During the event, challenge Black Kyurem and White Kyurem in five-star raids to acquire Fusion Energy. Fusing Zekrom or Reshiram with a Kyurem knowing Glaciate will replace Glaciate with Freeze Shock or Ice Burn respectively. This change is temporary; the move reverts to Glaciate upon separation. Note that these moves cannot be learned via Charged TMs or Elite Charged TMs.
