Niantic

Strength of Steel is the next stop in this year’s Ultra Unlock series in Pokémon Go and will run from July 25, 2024, at 10am local time to July 30, 2024, at 8pm local time. As is tradition for the Ultra Unlock events following Go Fest, it comes with a host of bonuses players can enjoy.

Trainers benefit from triple Catch Stardust, additional Catch XL Candy, more Candy for Nice, Great, and Excellent Throws, and an increased chance of XL Candy for these actions. There is also the debut of Shiny Togedemaru to keep on your radar. Among the bonuses you can take advantage of are a free Timed Research as well as several event-exclusive Field Research Tasks and Collection Challenges.
