Pokémon GO Closes Out 2020 With Kyurem and Mega Abomasnow Raids

During December, Trainers can encounter Kyurem and Mega Abomasnow in raids, enjoy double XP for catching Pokémon, and more.

 

November 25, 2020

 

The year might almost be over, but Pokémon GO Trainers have plenty to look forward to before they usher in 2021. Make sure your avatars are fitted with hats and gloves, because December’s five-star raid Pokémon are as cold as ice. From Tuesday, December 1, 2020, at 1:00 p.m. to Friday, January 1, 2021, at 1:00 p.m. PST (GMT −8), the Ice- and Dragon-type Pokémon Kyurem will be appearing in five-star raids. At the same time, Mega Abomasnow will be making its Pokémon GO debut and appearing in Mega Raids, replacing Mega Blastoise.

Trainers hoping to earn the exclusive Legacy 40 medal by reaching level 40 before the end of the year should take advantage of the double Catch XP bonus currently in effect. It’ll be active until Thursday, December 31, 2020, at 11:59 p.m. local time. When combined with the XP bonuses offered by some of the Pokémon Spotlight Hours happening each Tuesday from 6−7 p.m. local time, you’ll have the opportunity to seriously increase your XP growth! Check out the schedule below for more details on December’s Pokémon Spotlight Hours.

 

Date Pokémon Bonus
December 1 Seel Double Evolution XP
December 8 Swinub Double Stardust
December 15 Adventure Hat Pikachu Double catch Candy
December 22 Snorunt Double transfer Candy
December 29 Snover Double Evolution XP

 

Organizing Pokémon in Pokémon GO is about to get a lot easier thanks to a soon-to-be-introduced tagging system and general updates to search functionality. The Pokémon tagging system will allow Trainers to create tags and organize Pokémon by tag color. Trainers will also be able to search for Pokémon using a variety of search terms including Pokémon Type, Region, Buddy Level, Shiny, and more.

Best of luck ending the year strong!
