XP Celebration 2025

Aug 25, 2025, 1:00 PM local → Oct 14, 2025, 11:59 PM local

The **XP Celebration** event is designed to help Trainers prepare for Pokémon GO’s upcoming level cap raise (from level 50 to level 80). During this period, players can benefit from boosted XP bonuses, a special Timed Research with generous XP rewards (~7 million total), and an adjustment to a Level-Up Research task.

Event Bonuses (stacking)

2× Catch XP from Nice / Great / Excellent throws
+3,000 XP for each Raid win
+3,000 XP for each Max Battle win

Level-Up Research Adjustment

The Level-Up Research task for level 47 (which normally required exploring 25 km in a week eight times) is temporarily eased: now only two instances of the 25 km exploration requirement will be necessary.

Timed Research: “XP Celebration”

Trainers at level 5 or above get access to this special Timed Research. Completing all steps yields over ~7 million XP total.
