Pokémon GO Wild Area: Global 2026 – Gigantamax Duraludon, Legendary Raids And Melbourne Event

Pokémon GO Wild Area: Global returns this weekend, November 14-15, 2026, with two days of events and special encounters for trainers to catch.

The event runs from 10 am to 6 pm local time each day, with Steel- and Dragon-type Pokémon making up most of what trainers will catch and see in the wild. One of the biggest additions is Gigantamax Duraludon, which will appear in six-star Max Battles.

Dynamax Dialga and Dynamax Palkia will also make their debut during the event, with Dialga appearing on Saturday and Palkia on Sunday. Trainers can also challenge Legendary Pokémon, including Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem, in special raids.

The event is free to participate in, although an optional paid ticket will unlock additional Special Research, increased Shiny encounter chances and other bonuses.

Full details are available on the official Pokémon GO Wild Area website.

Melbourne Pokémon GO Wild Area Pop-Up Event

Australian players in Melbourne can also attend a special Pokémon GO Wild Area: Global activation at Westfield Fountain Gate in Narre Warren. The pop-up will give trainers a place to meet, collect a Pikachu visor and take part in photo opportunities. And if you check in through the Campfire app, you’ll also be able to get a pin.

The activation will run across both days of the event, with slightly different opening hours.

• Location: Westfield Fountain Gate, Narre Warren, Victoria
• Saturday, November 14: 9 am – 5 pm
• Sunday, November 15: 10 am – 5 pm
