Pokémon Go Inbound from Ultra Space Event: Pokémon GO’s Inbound from Ultra Space event is a prelude to the much-anticipated Pokémon GO Fest Global, and it’s packed with exciting bonuses you won’t want to miss! This guide will break down everything you need to know to make the most of this event, from event details and free Ultra Beasts to special event tickets and raid rotations.
Pokémon Go Inbound from Ultra Space Event Details and Bonuses
The Pokémon Go Inbound from Ultra Space Event is scheduled to run from July 8th to July 13th, from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. local time. Here’s what you can look forward to:
- Remote Raid Pass Limit Increase: You’ll get a generous increase in your Remote Raid Pass limit to 20 per day from July 8th to July 11th. And during the GO Fest Global weekend (July 12th to July 14th), there will be no limit on Remote Raid Passes at all! While the price for these passes remains the same, there are some excellent event box deals worth exploring.
- Guaranteed Extra Large Candy from Trading: This is arguably one of the event’s most valuable bonuses. Take advantage of this opportunity to trade away any Pokémon you’ve been hoarding for extra candy. Be sure to check out the comprehensive Pokémon storage management guide (linked below) for tips on marking Pokémon for trades and optimizing your storage.
- Free Ultra Beasts (Timed Research): This event features a free Timed Research quest that rewards you with encounters with Ultra Beasts. These encounters are at level 15, providing a chance to catch rare, Great League-eligible Ultra Beasts like Guzzlord and Buzzwole.
Special Event Ticket and Its Perks
For those looking to enhance their event experience, a special event ticket is available for $5. Here’s what the ticket offers:
- Extended Bonuses into GO Fest Global: Enjoy the ticket’s bonuses throughout the GO Fest Global weekend.
- Increased XP and Stardust: Get an additional 5,000 XP and double Stardust from completing raid battles.
- Enhanced Candy Rewards: Earn an extra candy and an extra large candy for catching Pokémon in five-star raids.
- Two Free Raid Passes Daily: Receive two orange raid passes each day. Remember, these are use-it-or-lose-it, so plan your raids accordingly.
- Additional Timed Research: The ticket includes another Timed Research quest, identical to the free one, but instead of more encounters, you’ll receive five extra large candies per respective Ultra Beast. Completing this research also rewards you with a Star Piece and 10 Cosmog candy.
Is the Special Event Ticket Worth It?
If you’re an avid raider, the special event ticket is a valuable investment due to the extra raid passes and candy rewards. However, if raiding isn’t your primary focus, the ticket might not offer enough value for you.
Web Store Deals
Before GO Fest Global, make sure to check out the web store for exclusive deals:
- Ultra Storage Box ($5): Includes storage upgrades, raid passes, and incubators.
- Ultra Raid Box ($20): A great deal on 40 premium raid passes and three remote raid passes.
- Ultra Hatch Box ($40): A pricier option, but offers a whopping 55 incubators (lucky eggs included).
All of these web store deals offer superior value compared to their in-game shop counterparts, so don’t miss out!
Special 7KM Eggs with Boosted Shiny Rates
GO Fest 2024 ticket holders will have access to special 7KM eggs with boosted shiny rates. These eggs will hatch Pokémon like Ducklett, Crabrawler, and Jangmo-o, with rarer options like Larvesta and Rockruff also available. Keep in mind that while shiny rates are boosted, they’re not guaranteed, so manage your expectations.
Ultra Beast Raid Rotation
The Ultra Beast raid rotation for the week is as follows:
| Date | Raid Boss(es) | Notes |
| July 8-9 | Guzzlord (Global) | Meta relevance in all open League formats, trade for lower IVs for PvP. |
| July 9-10 | Nihilego (Global) | Best Poison-type attacker, aim for the shiny. |
| July 10-11 | Celesteela (Southern Hemisphere) | Excellent for flying-type showcases. |
| July 10-11 | Kartana (Northern Hemisphere) | Best Grass-type attacker, great for Team GO Rocket battles. |
| July 11-12 | Stakataka (Eastern Hemisphere) | Not very useful currently, skip for now. |
| July 11-12 | Buzzwole (Western Hemisphere) | Great potential for the future, but shiny not yet available. |
| July 12 | Buzzwole (Americas) | Strong in PvP, aim for a Great League-eligible one from the Timed Research. |
| July 12 | Pheromosa (Europe, etc.) | Top Bug-type attacker, but limited utility. |
| July 12 | Xurkitree (Asia-Pacific) | Among the top three Electric-type attackers, go for it if it’s local to you. |
Mega Raids
Mega Swampert will be available in raids from July 8th to July 23rd. Consider using raid passes on Mega Swampert if the other raid bosses aren’t appealing to you. It’s a powerful water-type Mega Pokémon with Hydro Cannon.
Which Raid Bosses Should You Focus On?
Prioritize the Ultra Beasts that are most relevant to your gameplay style. Focus on domestic Ultra Beasts during the event week and regional ones during GO Fest Global Day One. If you have limited raid partners, consider using Pokey Genie or the Campfire map to find raids and connect with other players.
Additional Tips and Recommendations
- Save Your Raid Passes: If you’re aiming for Necrozma during GO Fest Global, strategically use your raid passes during the event week.
- Use Campfire: Utilize the Campfire map to locate raids and find local meetup groups for Raid Hours.
- Check Pokebattler: Simulate battles on Pokebattler to determine the best counters for each Ultra Beast.
- Consider Weather Conditions: Some Ultra Beasts are easier to defeat under specific weather conditions.
