The Gigantic Pokémon Eternatus returns!

Encounter the Poison- and Dragon-type Legendary Pokémon as you progress through a Max Battle adventure with GO Pass: Dynamax Trails, which starts during the Dynamax Trails event.

Eternatus can only be caught once during this event, and it requires much more Candy and Candy XL to power up due to its massive power. GO Pass: Dynamax Trails and GO Pass Deluxe: Dynamax Trails will provide Eternatus Candy and Candy XL. Trainers who have already caught Eternatus can continue their journey with it and receive Eternatus Candy that they can use to power up.

Prepare for the biggest battles of Pokémon GO as Eternamax Eternatus darkens the sky worldwide in Max Battles.

Eternamax Eternatus will take over the majority of Power Spots on November 21, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. local time.

While Trainers will not be able to catch Eternamax Eternatus after defeating it in Max Battles, they will earn a large amount of Eternatus Candy and Eternatus Candy XL, which can be used to power up the Eternatus they can catch via GO Pass: Dynamax Trails.

Event Bonuses

The following bonuses will be active during the event.

• Power Spots will refresh more frequently.
• Max Particle collection limit increased to 2,400.
• 8× Max Particles from Power Spots.
