Prepare to catch'em all at Pokémon GO's enormous event in Las Vegas

Pokémon GO , likely the world's most recognizable augmented reality game , hosts a gigantic in-person event February 18-19 in Las Vegas. This "tour" celebrates Hoenn, the setting for the third generation of Pokémon games, Ruby and Sapphire.

As with each of the game's previous tours, Pokémon GO Tour Hoenn focuses on a particular Pokémon, elemental type, or pop culture moment tied to the franchise. For this event, legendary powerhouses Kyogre and Groudon will have access to their Primal forms — a process that allows them to revert back to their original designs which feature flowing lava and brighter patterns on Groudon's arms and Kyogre's fins.

Returning to a beloved region

At the start of the event, players can choose from two teams, Ruby or Sapphire. The former increases the presence of Primal Groudon Raids, and the latter Primal Kyogre. For the first time since Pokémon GO launched, players will finally get to encounter the Primal versions of these legendary Pokémon.

Along with access to Primal Reversion, the event will also showcase one of the most popular forms of Pokémon across its many games: shiny variants. These color-changed versions of Pokémon are coveted most by collectors for how rarely they spawn in the wild.

During GO Tour Hoenn, players also have the chance to encounter other exclusive Pokémon. That includes the legendary Eon Pokémon Latios and Latias, the ever elusive Kecleon (which can also be shiny) and several species of Pokémon with shiny chances across different habitats: Nincada and Bagon in the Blistering Sands Habitat, along with Absol and Beldum in the Eerie Mists Habitat. You can even nab a costumed Pikachu wearing Brendan and May's hats from the Sapphire and Ruby games.

The event will also feature new music from Junichi Masuda, The Pokémon Company's Chief Creative Fellow and programmer whose ties to the franchise reach back to its very first games.

It's an addition that Humberto Kam, Niantic's Director of Global Live Events, hopes resonates most with fans.

The GO Tour will introduce new stickers as well. Niantic hide caption

The GO Tour will introduce new stickers as well.

"We're totally nerding out about that, because as people walk in [to the event], I want people to hear those horns from Hoenn...it was a great place to draw inspiration from, not only for the nostalgia but also to put a different spin on things." Kam said the experience is also an attempt to bridge the gap between fans old and new to the world of Pokémon GO .

Kam shared that destination appeal is a significant metric for in-person events as players may want to participate in activities outside of the game. "As much as we love Pokémon GO , if I was going to the event, my wife might want to have something else to do," he added laughing.

"We did Kanto and Johto years prior, so this was next on the list but given that it's Hoenn, we knew we had to do it right," Kam said about the impact of Ruby and Sapphire and the plans for this year's GO Tour.

Familiar faces

Bringing Hoenn's iconic legends to the event was an ode to a generation beloved by players across the Pokémon community. "When we started talking about GO Tour for this year, we just went Primals, right? We're going to add Primals?'" Kam said about the planning stages. From very early on they wanted to do something special and it felt like a "no-brainer" to add the feature.

Throughout the history of the franchise, Groudon and Kyogre have been staples in the anime, in viral memes , and on teams that have had massive success in the video game format tournaments of Pokémon's competitive scene .

The two, along with the legendary dragon Rayquaza, make up what fans have coined "the weather trio" — a trifecta of elemental barons who hold dominion over their respective ecosystems.

Groudon, as its earthy name suggests, reigns over the lithosphere, while the water Pokémon Kyogre rules the hydrosphere. In Pokémon lore, both creatures remain locked in an ancient rivalry, causing the earth's surface to split and its oceans to swell.

In the main series of games, Groudon and Kyogre serve as the cover art for Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire versions, respectively. Together, the games are listed as the eighth best-selling titles in the franchise's history.

James Perkins Mastromarino and Andy Bickerton contributed to this report.

Pokemon Go's Hoenn Tour is taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada, in February 2023

Pokémon Go’s Season 9: Mythical Wishes is launching tomorrow and is bringing back the much-awaited Pokémon Go Tour 2023, which takes trainers all the way back to Hoenn. On February 18th and 19th of next year, the event will go live in Sunset Park, Las Vegas. Pokémon from Ruby and Sapphire are making their way there as players participate in all the festivities.

There is so much that is going to happen during the Pokémon Go Tour 2023, but the most surprising thing is a partnership with Team Go Rocket of all people! During the event, a Special Research story will be held, which sees players join forces with their foes. It’s not yet clear whether the villains have had a change of heart or if is this just an elaborate trap.

The primal forces are also coming to Pokémon Go as Groudon and Kyogre are resurfacing, causing environmental havoc. Primal Reversion comes to the AR game for the first time and players participating in the Primal Surge Field Research will receive opportunities of encountering these ancient and strong Pokémon.

This season has been titled Mythical Wishes and the hardcore fans may have realised that this has to do something to do with the wish-making Pokémon, Jirachi. Trainers making their way to the Hoenn Tour will be granted the Masterwork Research that includes an encounter with not just the regular Jirachi, but its Shiny variant!

Speaking of Shiny Pokémon, a lot of them will be available in Las Vegas. Professor Willow’s research has led to the revelation of a massive number of Shiny Pokémon from the Hoenn region appearing during the Tour next year. It’s the perfect opportunity to check those boxes off your empty Pokédex.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of all the festivities. Find out more on the official website . Niantic is also running an early bird discount right now with tickets available for $25 .

See you in 80 days!

We ask that Trainers who do not have a ticket for Pokémon GO Tour: Hoenn – Las Vegas refrain from joining us at the park tomorrow, to ensure a smooth event for Sunday ticket holders and Trainers who have the Sunday Extra Day Add-On. — Pokémon GO (@PokemonGoApp) February 19, 2023

An additional 17,000 Trainers without tickets joined us at the park, causing spotty connectivity throughout the day. This led to Trainers disconnecting from raids, being unable to log in, and other issues with gameplay. — Pokémon GO (@PokemonGoApp) February 19, 2023

Trainers, we appreciate the enthusiasm you showed today at Pokémon GO Tour: Hoenn – Las Vegas. — Pokémon GO (@PokemonGoApp) February 19, 2023

Pokemon GO Hoenn Tour 2023 will take place in Las Vegas from February 18

Las Vegas will host the annual Pokemon GO Hoenn Tour 2023 in February. Pokemon Go has announced Pokemon Go Tour: Hoenn, a brand-new two-day international event that will happen on February 18 and February 19. In addition to Shiny versions of every Pokemon linked to the Hoenn area, this tour will include the Primal forms of Kyogre and Groudon . The lone Gen 3 Pokemon that isn’t already in Pokemon Go, Kecleon, may or may not appear during the Pokemon Go Tour event.

Shiny Unown H, Shiny Surskit, Shiny Gulpin, Shiny Torkoal, Shiny Cacnea, Shiny Tropius, and Shiny Relicanth are just a few of the new Shiny Pokemon that were unveiled during the event. As part of the event, Shiny Jirachi will also make an appearance in the game, which is sure to be a big lure for gamers to take part.

Pokemon GO Hoenn Tour 2023 marks the third year that Pokemon Go has hosted a Tour event

This is the third time that Pokemon Go has held a Go Tour event, with previous iterations concentrating on Kanto and Johto . Each event has a ticket selection that decides which Pokemon players will encounter during the event. These rotating spawns of Pokemon are typically based off of particular places or ecosystems within the region.

Pokémon of Hoenn are coming to Sunset Park when #PokemonGOTour arrives in Las Vegas February 2023! Don’t miss your chance to play with thousands of other Trainers from around the world! Who knows—you never know what Pokémon you might encounter. 😉 🎟 https://t.co/IY8qMr3E88 pic.twitter.com/5P75GWq7Al — Pokémon GO (@PokemonGoApp) November 29, 2022

Attendees of the Pokémon GO Tour: Hoenn – Las Vegas can either buy a ticket for one of the two days of the event, or they can buy a one-day ticket with a second-day add-on. On the Pokémon GO Tour website, one-day tickets can be purchased for US$30.00 (or the corresponding price tier in your home currency), plus any applicable taxes and fees. Enthusiasts around the globe can buy tickets here .

Players will get access to a fun new activity during the event where they must find concealed secret codes across the park. When trainers find them, they can scan them for a chance to meet a Legendary Pokémon. In Pokémon Go, players will also have the chance to see Primal Reversion forms for the first time.

Players present will also be able to enjoy the standard in-person experience, which includes a higher possibility of running into Shiny Pokémon from the Hoenn region. Shiny Jirachi is included in this. Players will receive benefits such as half Hatch Distance, up to nine extra Raid Passes each day when spinning Gym Photo Discs, and other things.

Meet with notable Trainers in Las Vegas

Visitors to the Pokemon GO Tour: Hoenn – Las Vegas will have the opportunity to interact with prominent Trainers from the area! On both days of the Pokémon GO Tour: Hoenn – Las Vegas, February 18 and 19, 2023, between 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. local time, there will be meet-and-greets with famous Trainers. If required, lines may be capped earlier.

In addition to landoralpha, The Trainer Club, AjentVee, GlitchxCity, ZoTwoDots, and swaggron333, trainers can anticipate meeting these characters. The meet-and-greet events for a certain day are only open to Trainers who have tickets for the Pokémon GO Tour: Hoenn – Las Vegas on that day.

When is Pokémon Go Tour: Hoenn Las Vegas?

Tickets are now available for purchase for the Pokémon Go Tour: Hoenn , which is set to take place in Las Vegas, Nevada at Sunset Park. The event will be full of fun things for Pokémon Go fans of all ages to partake in.

The event features Pokémon from the Hoenn region and will give players access to exclusive event gameplay on the day they choose to buy a ticket for. Players can only get one ticket per account, so they’ll need to choose wisely and coordinate with friends if they want to play on the same day.

Check out the guide below for all the important times and dates for the newest Pokémon Go event.

Pokémon Go Tour: Hoenn Las Vegas start date and times

Pokémon Go Tour: Hoenn takes place Feb. 18 and Feb. 19. In the past, players could only choose one day to go to the event, but this time there is an additional add-on option to buy the other day as well. However, at the time of writing, Saturday tickets are already sold out and only Sunday tickets are available. On each of those days, the event will be active from 10am to 6pm PST.

Tickets aren’t cheap for the event, especially since the early bird dates have passed and players will need to pay full price if they want to attend. Tickets are $30 each plus taxes and fees, making it a pretty expensive day for those who want to go both days, families, or people who plan to pay for more than just themselves.

Pokémon Go Tour: Hoenn Las Vegas will feature an abundance of activities for attendees. Those who go will be able to experience Primal Reversion for the first time in the game, there will be a plethora of Pokémon hatching in eggs, in the wild, and in Raids, and there will be an increased chance to find Shiny Pokémon during the event.

Those who can attend on Sunday still have time to get their tickets before they sell out on the Pokémon Go website.
