Pokemon GO has unveiled its August 2025 GO Pass, offering trainers an exciting opportunity to encounter the legendary Fire-type Pokemon Moltres. This tiered reward system functions similarly to battle passes in other live-service games, providing players with valuable items and special Pokemon encounters as they progress through different levels.

Trainers still working on the July 2025 GO Pass have until August 5 to complete Rank 100 and claim their encounter with the Electric-type legendary bird Zapdos. The GO Pass system serves as an excellent way for players to accumulate essential resources like Stardust and Candy, which are crucial for powering up their Pokemon teams.

The August 2025 GO Pass will be available from August 3 to September 3, featuring Moltres with a special background themed after Pokemon GO's Delightful Days summer event. Similar to previous months, the legendary Pokemon will likely be available at Rank 100, with a chance for lucky trainers to encounter its shiny variant.

For players seeking enhanced rewards, the Deluxe GO Pass offers premium items including a Lucky Trinket, Super Incubator, and additional Pokemon encounters. While the specific Pokemon aren't confirmed, they may include special event Pokemon recently added to the game.

August presents numerous opportunities for Pokemon GO players, but some special events will conclude at the beginning of the month. Notably, a promo code revealed during the Pokemon Presents live stream offers a free Gigantamax Pokemon (Cinderace, Rillaboom, or Inteleon) for players who redeem it before August 3, 2025.
