In celebration of Pokémon’s 30th anniversary, the Pokémon Run30 event is coming to seven regions across Asia! There will be an immersive running course, a free-to-enter Festival Zone where you can purchase special merchandise, and an in-game event in Pokémon GO to run alongside this running event.

Pokémon Run events are a series of Pokémon-themed marathon events hosted by The Pokémon Company. There are typically various lengths of runs available to join, from 2km, to 10km depending on your ability (or desire to run!). We don’t yet know what lengths of runs will be featured for the upcoming events.
