What Is the Pokemon GO Tour Pass? New Free Progression Feature, Explained

Author : Aurora Update：Mar 21,2025

With every new *Pokémon GO* ticket or pass announcement from Niantic, the burning question on many players' minds is always the price. The recent introduction of the *Pokémon GO* Tour Pass surprised many, as it’s entirely free—but what exactly does it offer?

What is a Tour Pass in *Pokémon GO*?

The Tour Pass is a new feature debuting with the *Pokémon GO* Tour: Unova global event. It revolves around completing tasks to earn Tour Points, which unlock rewards, boost your rank, and enhance event bonuses during the Unova event. The standard Tour Pass is free and automatically granted to players when the *Pokémon GO* Tour: Unova event begins on February 24th at 10 AM local time. A paid version, the Tour Pass Deluxe, is also available for $14.99 USD (or local equivalent), offering an instant Victini encounter, upgraded rewards, and faster progression through the Tour Pass levels.

Tour Points are earned through familiar in-game activities: catching Pokémon, participating in raids, and hatching eggs. Daily refreshing Pass Tasks provide additional points. These points unlock rewards, increase your rank within the Tour Pass tiers, and unlock various rewards, including Pokémon encounters, Candy, Poké Balls, and more.

Higher ranks also boost your Catch XP bonus during *Pokémon GO* Tour: Unova. The bonuses are:

  • 1.5x Catch XP at Tier 2
  • 2x Catch XP at Tier 3
  • 3x Catch XP at Tier 4

While Niantic hasn’t revealed all rewards, the free Tour Pass’s highest tier grants a Zorua encounter with a special background. The paid Tour Pass Deluxe culminates in a new item: the Lucky Trinket.

The Lucky Trinket, the final reward of the Deluxe Pass, is a one-time-use item transforming a friend into a Lucky Friend. This allows a Lucky Pokémon trade without needing Best Friend status (though Great Friends is required to use the item). Lucky Trinkets obtained during GO Tour: Unova expire on March 9, 2025.

*Pokémon GO* is available now.
