To get Eternatus in Pokémon Go, players need to reach rank 60 in the GO Pass: Max Finale. This pass is part of a special event where players earn points by completing Max Battles and raids. Upon reaching rank 60, players unlock an encounter with Eternatus, which they can catch. Eternatus is not available through regular raids and cannot be caught directly from battling Eternamax Eternatus. The GO Pass: Max Finale became available for free on August 18, 2025, and players can progress through it by participating in various battles and completing tasks. Key points:
- Eternatus is unlocked as a reward at rank 60 in the free GO Pass: Max Finale.
- Players earn points by completing Max Battles, raids, and event tasks.
- Defeating Eternamax Eternatus in Tier 6 Max Battles does not grant a catch but helps accumulate points.
- The encounter is available once per player and Eternatus is not tradable or transferable to Pokémon Home.
- Candy to power up Eternatus can be earned by participating in Max Battles and from rewards in the GO Pass.
In summary, the method to get Eternatus is to actively participate in the Max Finale event, advance to rank 60 on the GO Pass, and claim the encounter reward.
