Pokémon GO has lifted the curtain on the full details of its Final Justice Event. It forms part of the closing stretch of the Tales of Transformation season in the game. This offering also comes ahead of the December Community Day 2025. In particular, it introduces a new character, along with a shiny version. At the same time, the event adds fresh wild encounters, and more in-game activities.
Keldeo Debuts in Pokémon GO
According to Niantic, the highlight of the Final Justice event is the coming of Resolute Form Keldeo. The arrival of the Colt Pokémon marks its first appearance in the popular VR mobile game. Specifically, players will unlock the last part of the Seasonal Special Research at the start of the event. It allows them to change the form of the new character using 50 Keldeo Candy.
Resolute Form Keldeo also brings a fresh move to the game. Particularly, it will learn the secret sword. This charged attack deals 70 power in Trainer Battles and 120 power in Gyms and raids.
In the same way, Shiny Keldeo will be available in Pokémon GO for the first time. To encounter this version, trainers must buy a Masterwork Research ticket. It sells for $7.99 in the in-game shop once the game begins. The good news is that the ticket does not expire, so players do not have to rush. However, they cannot use PokéCoins to make a purchase.
Final Justice Event Bonuses and Wild Encounters
The developers also said that trainers can earn up to two free Raid Passes. All they have to do is spin Gym Photo Discs during the event.
Aside from these, there will be wild encounters with the following Pokémon:
- Crabrawler
- Hisuian Sneasel
- Hitmonchan
- Hitmonlee
- Hitmontop
- Shiny Hitmonchan
- Shiny Hitmonlee
- Shiny Hitmontop

Similarly, field research tasks will offer encounters with various Pokémon. A few of them even reward players with Keldeo Candy. The developers also added new collection challenges. Trainers can claim XP, Premium Battle Passes, and Stardust after completing these activities.

The Final Justice event of Pokémon GO runs from November 25 (10 AM) to November 30 (8 PM) local time. Tickets for the Masterwork Research will be available globally on the same schedule.
