In the world of *Pokemon GO,* the announcement of a new ticket or pass often sparks curiosity about its cost. However, the newly introduced *Pokemon GO* Tour Pass for the Global event of *Pokemon GO* Tour: Unova comes as a pleasant surprise—it's free! But what exactly is this Tour Pass, and how can it enhance your gaming experience?

What Is a Tour Pass in *Pokemon GO*?

The Tour Pass is a fresh addition to *Pokemon GO,* debuting with the *Pokemon GO* Tour: Unova Global event. This pass is all about engaging players with various tasks to earn Tour Points. These points unlock rewards, boost your rank, and enhance event bonuses throughout the GO Tour Unova event. The Tour Pass is automatically granted to all players when the event kicks off on February 24 at 10 AM local time, at no cost.

For those looking for an extra edge, there's also a paid option called the Tour Pass Deluxe, priced at $14.99 USD or its local equivalent. This deluxe version offers an immediate encounter with Victini, along with enhanced rewards and accelerated progression through the Tour Pass levels.

How Do You Earn Tour Points & What Do They Do?

These Tour Points are your key to unlocking a variety of rewards, including Pokemon encounters, candy, Poke Balls, and more, as you progress through the Tour Pass tiers. Advancing through these tiers not only brings you closer to exciting rewards but also increases your Catch XP bonus during the *Pokemon GO* Tour: Unova event. Here's how the bonuses stack up:

• 1.5× Catch XP upon reaching Tier 2
• 2× Catch XP upon reaching Tier 3
• 3× Catch XP upon reaching Tier 4

While Niantic has kept some details under wraps, promising more information soon, we do know that the highest reward tier in the free Tour Pass leads to an encounter with Zorua, featuring a special background. On the other hand, the Tour Pass Deluxe offers a unique final reward: the Lucky Trinket.

What Is a Lucky Trinket?

Keep in mind, Lucky Trinkets earned during GO Tour: Unova will expire on March 9, 2025, so make sure to use them within this limited timeframe.
