Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations cover Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong and Thailand as part of the Pokémon 30th Anniversary Mall Exploration campaign. The first sites activate on October 1, 2026, and the confirmed schedule currently stretches through March 28, 2027.
The dates for Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations are not shared across every mall, so checking the exact venue window matters before you travel. Some locations run for months, while several Philippine malls only have one- or two-week windows, and Hong Kong plus Thailand still have incomplete scheduling details.

Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations: Full List and Dates
The complete confirmed set of Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations is listed below using the dates published by Pokémon GO. Each participating venue can grant the same one-time Timed Research to an eligible Trainer during its own event period, but an account can only claim that research once across the campaign.
| Country / region | Mall or venue | Event dates |
|---|---|---|
| Malaysia | Ombak KLCC | October 1 – December 31, 2026 |
| Philippines | SM Mall of Asia | October 1, 2026 – January 31, 2027 |
| Philippines | SM East Ortigas | October 23 – November 8, 2026 |
| Philippines | SM Southmall | November 20 – 30, 2026 |
| Philippines | SM North EDSA | December 10, 2026 – January 3, 2027 |
| Philippines | SM Marikina | January 15 – 31, 2027 |
| Philippines | SM Seaside Cebu | February 5 – 14, 2027 |
| Philippines | SM Davao | February 20 – March 7, 2027 |
| Philippines | SM CDO Downtown | March 13 – 28, 2027 |
| Singapore | Changi Airport | November 7, 2026 – February 28, 2027 |
| Singapore | Jewel | November 7, 2026 – January 31, 2027 |
| Hong Kong | Festival Walk | To be announced |
| Thailand | Venue to be announced | To be announced |
Malaysia
Malaysia is one of the first Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations to go live. Ombak KLCC runs from October 1 through December 31, 2026, giving Trainers a three-month window rather than a short launch weekend.
If Malaysia is your chosen stop for Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations, remember that the research is still one-time per Trainer. The longer date range gives you flexibility on when to visit, but it does not create a fresh claim each month.
Philippines
The Philippines has by far the largest number of confirmed Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations, with eight SM venues scheduled from October 2026 through March 2027. SM Mall of Asia has the longest single Philippine window, running from October 1 through January 31.
The other Philippine Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations rotate through East Ortigas, Southmall, North EDSA, Marikina, Seaside Cebu, Davao and CDO Downtown. Because several windows do not overlap, the campaign effectively moves around the country over six months.
Singapore
Singapore has two confirmed Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations: Changi Airport and Jewel. Both begin on November 7, 2026, but Jewel ends on January 31, 2027 while Changi Airport continues until February 28.
That makes Singapore one of the more flexible options for Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations because both venues have long schedules. As elsewhere, four-hour Lure Modules apply within designated event areas during the active period.
Hong Kong and Thailand
Festival Walk is the named Hong Kong entry among Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations, but Pokémon GO has not yet published its dates. Thailand is also listed without a venue or dates, so both should be treated as confirmed campaign regions with incomplete logistics.
Wait for an official schedule update before planning a trip specifically around those Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations. The event page is clear about which details are still pending, and there is no benefit in filling the gaps with guessed dates.
What You Get at a Participating Location
Visiting one of the active Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations can grant Timed Research with event-themed Pokémon encounters. The research can be claimed only once per Trainer at any participating mall and expires 10 days after receipt.
Designated Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations areas also receive a four-hour Lure Module bonus. That bonus belongs to the event area rather than the entire city, so confirm the active mall gameplay before using a Lure purely for the extended duration.
How to Pick the Best Location for You
The best practical choice among Pokémon GO Mall Exploration Locations is simply the one you can visit during its confirmed date window without making the one-time research unnecessarily difficult to complete. Long-running sites such as SM Mall of Asia, Ombak KLCC and Changi Airport give you more flexibility than the short rotating Philippine stops.
If you travel often, do not claim the research at the first of the the mall schedule you pass unless you are ready to start its ten-day countdown. Once claimed, the official rules say you cannot obtain another copy at a different participating mall.
the mall schedule are spread across a long calendar, so there is no need to treat October 1 as a single make-or-break launch date. Match the venue to your own travel window, verify that the event is active in-game and then use the one-time research and four-hour Lure bonus while you are inside the designated area.
