Hello Trainers. Today’s Pokémon update brings live event rewards, Unova nostalgia, and a raid-heavy weekend you don’t want to miss.
## 1. Watch Worlds for Twitch Drops Across the Pokémon Realm
By watching the **2025 Pokémon World Championships** on Twitch or YouTube through 17 August, you can unlock timed research and Twitch Drops spanning multiple games. That includes:
- A **Scarlet & Violet Mystery Gift** featuring Farigiraf in Trucluster times.
- **Hourglasses for TCG Pocket**—12 Pack and 12 Wonder variants.
- Pokémon GO Timed Research codes for encounters with Skarmory and more.
## 2. Black Bolt & White Flare Cards Keep Unova Alive
Still riding the wave of Unova love—**Black Bolt** and **White Flare** TCG sets launched mid‑July and brought 156 Unova Pokémon back into focus, complete with Illustrations Rare, Special Illustration Rare, and striking black‑&‑white BWR cards. They’re a visual gem, especially if you’re constructing a display-worthy collection.
## 3. Shadow Kyogre Makes a Fierce Debut in Pokémon GO
This weekend’s GO event features **Shadow Kyogre** in five‑star raids—with a shiny variant now possible for the first time. The event runs **16–17 August**, and Trainers will get an extra Raid Pass per day. It’s the perfect time for GO fans to gear up and dive in.
