Unova Tour Unlocks Legendary Kyurem Forms in Pokémon Go

Get ready for the Pokémon GO Tour: Unova! Black and White Kyurem and Shiny Meloetta are making their debut. This guide explains how to catch and fuse Kyurem.

Kyurem's Alternate Forms Arrive

Following the December 2024 announcement, Niantic has confirmed the arrival of Black Kyurem, White Kyurem, and Shiny Meloetta in the February 2025 Unova Tour. In-person event attendees in New Taipei City, Taiwan, and Los Angeles, USA (February 21-23, 2025) can participate in five-star raids to capture Kyurem and then fuse it.

Kyurem Fusion:

To fuse Kyurem, you'll need:

• Black Kyurem: 1,000 Volt Fusion Energy, 30 Kyurem Candy, and 30 Zekrom Candy.
• White Kyurem: 1,000 Blaze Fusion Energy, 30 Kyurem Candy, and 30 Reshiram Candy.

Fusion Energy is obtained by defeating Black or White Kyurem in raids. Reversion to the base form is free. Shiny Kyurem, Reshiram, and Zekrom have increased encounter rates during the event.

A global event (March 1-2, 2025) – Pokémon GO Tour: Unova – Global – will offer a ticketless opportunity for all players to participate.

Shiny Meloetta Arrives!

Shiny Meloetta debuts! In-person event ticket holders can complete a Masterwork Research to encounter this Pokémon. The research doesn't expire, allowing completion at your own pace.
