Pokémon GO Pass November 2026 starts on Tuesday, 3 November at 10 a.m. local time, with a free reward track offering 400 PokéCoins and a Groudon encounter. Groudon can be Shiny, although that isn’t guaranteed. Paying for Deluxe adds 1,000 more PokéCoins, bringing the combined total to 1,400.
Complete Pass Tasks to earn GO Points and unlock rewards as you climb the ranks. You have until 1 December at 10 a.m. to earn points, but until 3 December at 10 a.m. to claim what you’ve unlocked. The two deadlines are worth remembering, particularly if you leave your pass until the last weekend.
Pokémon GO Pass November 2026 dates and UK start time
The Pokémon GO Pass November 2026 uses local time for every deadline. In the UK, the pass opens at 10 a.m. on 3 November, with no need to work out a conversion from Pacific Time.
| When | November 2026 GO Pass deadline (local time) |
|---|---|
| Starts | 3 November, 10:00 a.m. |
| No daily GO Points cap | 28 November, 12:00 a.m. to 29 November, 11:59 p.m. |
| Stop earning points | 1 December, 10:00 a.m. |
| Claim unlocked prizes | Before 3 December, 10:00 a.m. |
Earning points and claiming rewards are separate. Progression stops on 1 December, but your unlocked items remain claimable for two more days. Anything left sitting on the reward track after 10 a.m. on 3 December expires.
Pokémon GO Pass November 2026 free rewards
There’s no purchase required to get started. Every Trainer receives the free November pass automatically, and these rewards are confirmed for Pokémon GO Pass November 2026:
- A Groudon encounter, with Shiny Groudon possible but not guaranteed.
- 400 PokéCoins.
- A Lucky Egg.
- Rare Candy XL.
- Stardust and further rewards.
The Groudon encounter comes from the reward track, not from a new wild spawn. Its exact reward rank hasn’t been detailed in the announcement, so check the in-game pass when it opens. If you want to build a team around your catch, our Groudon guide covers its strengths, moves and weaknesses.
How to earn GO Points and get Groudon
Once Pokémon GO Pass November 2026 is available, open the pass, complete its listed tasks and collect the GO Points they award. Each new rank brings you closer to another reward. Groudon belongs to the free track, so you can work towards that encounter without buying Deluxe.
If you’re behind on ranks, mark 28 and 29 November in your calendar. The usual daily GO Points cap is removed from midnight on Saturday through 11:59 p.m. on Sunday. You can make extra progress then, but the pass still finishes at 10 a.m. on 1 December.
Pokémon GO Pass November 2026 Deluxe rewards and price
The paid upgrade costs US$7.99, or the equivalent local price. It adds another 1,000 PokéCoins, a Super Incubator and more Pokémon encounters while keeping all the free rewards. For US$9.99, Deluxe + 10 Ranks gives enough GO Points to reach Rank 11. Neither purchase instantly completes the pass.
You can buy Deluxe after you’ve started progressing and still claim the paid rewards attached to ranks you’ve already reached. The Pokémon GO Web Store also has bonus items with its upgrade options. Our November Deluxe comparison explains which version offers better value and what the Web Store adds.
Rank 1, 25, 50 and 75 bonuses
The Pokémon GO Pass November 2026 also unlocks ongoing bonuses as you hit certain ranks. These are different from the one-off items you collect from the reward track:
- Rank 1: one extra Candy per Pokémon trade, plus one guaranteed Candy XL for Trainers level 31 and above.
- Rank 25, free: open 40 Gifts daily, receive up to 125 from PokéStops and Gyms, and hold 10 more Gifts.
- Rank 25, Deluxe: open 50 Gifts daily, receive up to 150, and hold 20 more Gifts.
- Rank 50: double Daily Adventure Incense duration.
- Rank 75: more Stardust and XP from hatching Eggs. No exact multiplier was announced.
If you’re planning lots of trades or Gift exchanges, those early milestones are useful targets. Rank 50 doubles Daily Adventure Incense duration; our Daily Adventure Incense guide covers how to use it. Deluxe increases the Gift limits at Rank 25, but isn’t needed for Groudon.
How to claim the November pass before 3 December
Before 3 December at 10 a.m. local time, open the pass and claim everything you’ve unlocked, including PokéCoins and the Groudon encounter. If you upgraded after making progress, go back through earlier ranks for the newly available Deluxe rewards as well.
The free track has plenty to offer without spending anything, particularly if you want Groudon and some extra coins. Buying Deluxe makes more sense if you expect to earn the paid rewards before the earning window closes. Otherwise, enjoy the free pass and keep an eye on the claim deadline.
