Pokémon Go’s ‘Serene Retreat’ Event Begins Ahead of Fest 2025

OAKLAND, CA — Pokémon Go has kicked off its ‘Serene Retreat‘ event, which runs from May 30 to June 3, 2025, as fans gear up for the Pokémon Go Fest in Osaka. This event offers exciting bonuses, including halved hatch distance for eggs placed in Incubators and boosted XP for hatching.

During ‘Serene Retreat,’ players can purchase a premium Timed Research ticket for $1.99, offering unique encounters with the Pokémon Munna and Morelull, both of which have increased shiny rates. Additionally, those who buy the ticket will earn 1.5x Stardust for hatching eggs.

The event will see a surge of popular Pokémon in the wild, including the likes of Chansey, Cutiefly, and Komala. Players can also take part in several Collection Challenges, rewarding them with valuable items and Pokémon encounters.

One of the highlights of ‘Serene Retreat’ is the debut of Gigantamax Rillaboom. This powerful variant of the Pokémon will be available in Max Battles on specific dates throughout the event, allowing trainers to test their skills.

Field research tasks during the event provide opportunities to earn even more rewards. Completing these challenges will contribute to the overall excitement leading up to Pokémon Go Fest 2025.

The ‘Serene Retreat’ event not only allows players who cannot attend the Osaka event to participate but also enriches their gameplay experience with various bonuses and challenges. The excitement around ‘Serene Retreat’ showcases the game’s thriving community and the innovative ways players can engage with Pokémon Go.

The event concludes on June 3 at 8 PM local time, so players are encouraged to make the most of this opportunity before it ends.
