- White Kyurem: 1,000 Blaze Fusion Energy, 30 Kyurem Candy, and 30 Reshiram Candy.
Fusion Energies are earned by defeating Black or White Kyurem in raids. Reversion to the base Kyurem form is free. Increased Shiny rates for Kyurem, Reshiram, and Zekrom will also be available during the event.
Global Event and Shiny Meloetta
The event continues globally from March 1st to 2nd, 2025, as Pokémon GO Tour: Unova - Global, a free event for all players.

Unova Region Legendaries
Kyurem, Reshiram, Zekrom, and Meloetta originated in Pokémon Black and White, the fifth generation of Pokémon games. Black and White 2 introduced Kyurem's alternate forms, capable of learning Ice Burn and Freeze Shock, mirroring their Pokémon GO counterparts. This limited-time event offers a complete Unova experience.
