When does the GO Fest 2026 take place? As indicated in the description of the trailer on several platforms, the global GO Fest 2026 will take place on July 11 and 12, 2026.
What else can be seen in the trailer? In the trailer, you see a trainer watching different channels on the TV. She stops at a report that talks about the GO Fest 2026. It mentions that Mewtwo appears.
After that, she sets off with other trainers and encounters the powerful legendary monster herself.
Furthermore, towards the end of the trailer, another monster is also seen, which will be part of the GO Fest 2026: the mysterious monster Zeraora.
Which Mega Evolutions are hinted at? For trainers attending a local edition of the GO Fest 2026, merchandise on pokemongo.com has been released, which can be purchased in addition to a ticket and will be distributed locally.
At the center of the merchandise is Mewtwo. User wjbonne on Reddit noticed a special detail: behind Mewtwo, the emblem of Mega Evolutions can be seen.
This detail does not necessarily mean that the Mega Evolutions of Mewtwo are part of the GO Fest 2026. However, it is a hint that indicates exactly that.
Moreover, it would surely be a good time, considering the 30th anniversary of the franchise and the 10th birthday of Pokémon GO this year.
