Unlocking Event Advantages: Bonuses and Benefits
As the 'Road to Legends' event unfolds, trainers will benefit from several active bonuses designed to enhance their gameplay experience. These perks, which will also extend into Go Fest: Global until July 12th, include an unlimited capacity for remote raids, allowing for more flexible participation. Additionally, spinning PokéStops and gyms will yield unique stickers to commemorate the event. Premier Balls used after raids will exhibit increased effectiveness, boosting your chances of successfully capturing Pokémon. Raids will also see faster Party Power charges, streamlining your battle strategy. Origin Forme Palkia and Origin Forme Dialga will have the ability to learn Spacial Rend and Roar of Time through Elite TMs, adding strategic depth to your team. Furthermore, trainers can claim up to two complimentary raid passes daily by interacting with gym discs until July 10th.
Navigating the Go Pass: Rewards and Progression
The 'Road to Legends' event introduces a comprehensive Go Pass featuring 100 ranks, with an additional 400 bonus ranks offering Stardust. A notable aspect of this pass is the opportunity to acquire Link Charges and legendary Pokémon candy simply by playing the game. Reaching specific tiers on the pass unlocks special bonuses. At Rank 2, the Link Charge storage limit expands to 2,000. Deluxe pass holders at Rank 2 receive one extra Candy XL from five-star or higher raid catches, while at Rank 3, they gain three additional candies from such catches. Rank 4 deluxe holders get an extra 5,000 XP per successful raid, and at Rank 5, they enjoy double candy from hatching Pokémon. Rank 6 deluxe holders benefit from double Stardust from hatching Pokémon. Critically, reaching Rank 10 on the free pass halves the hatch distance for eggs. A significant reward awaits free pass holders who achieve Rank 100: a Lucky Trinket, guaranteeing a lucky trade with a friend. Trainers can accumulate up to 1,000 pass points daily (equivalent to 10 ranks) by hatching eggs, winning raids, and catching Pokémon, with an additional 250 points available for winning a raid. It is anticipated that the daily point limit will be lifted during Go Fest: Global, enabling extensive point accumulation during the event festivities.
