Ultra Beasts appearing during Pokemon Go Fest 2022 Finale

Four Ultra Beasts will appear in 5-Star Raids throughout the Pokemon Go Fest 2022 Finale event: Buzzwole, Pheromosa, Xurkitree, and Nihilego.

While Nihilego made its global debut during the main Pokemon Go Fest 2022 event in June, this Finale event will mark the first time that Buzzwole, Pheromosa, and Xurkitree will be available around the world.

Buzzwole previously appeared during Go Fest Seattle, Pheromosa appeared during Go Fest Berlin, and Xurkitree appeared during Go Fest Sapporo. All of these were in-person events that required a ticket.

You’ll be able to catch these four Ultra Beasts in the same way you’d catch a Legendary Pokemon: Defeat them in a 5-Star Raid Battle, then use a limited amount of Premier Balls to try to capture them.

We’ve got counter guides for Pheromosa, Buzzwole, Xurkitree, and Nihilego to help you defeat them.
