- Pokemon GO's Dual Destiny season runs from December 3, 2024 to March 4, 2025.
Although details are currently scarce, if confirmed, this won't be the pocket monster's first time in the game. Back in 2021, Hoopa Confined, the critter's regular form, debuted in Pokemon GO as one of the rewards for completing the third part of the Misunderstood Mischief Special Research. Players then unlocked its other form, Hoopa Unbound, by joining the Mischief Unbound event that took place the same year. While Special Research was Hoopa Confined's only appearance, the Unbound form appeared in Elite Raids from October to December 2022.
