July 2026 Pokémon GO Pass and GO Pass Deluxe

GO Pass is a free, limited-time progression track available during a specified period. By collecting GO Points, you can increase your rank to earn rewards. For US$7.99 (or the equivalent pricing in your local currency), Trainers can upgrade to the GO Pass Deluxe, a paid version of the GO Pass that offers upgraded rewards and faster progression. For US$9.99 (or the equivalent pricing in your local currency), Trainers can upgrade to the GO Pass Deluxe + 10 Ranks to also automatically earn enough GO Points to reach Rank 11.

Trainers who upgrade to the GO Pass Deluxe: July 2026 or GO Pass Deluxe: July 2026 + 10 Ranks on the Pokémon GO Web Store will receive 10 Ultra Balls, five Max Revives, one Premium Battle Pass, and five Max Potions as a gift with purchase.


While progressing through the GO Pass Deluxe, you’ll be able to claim all of the rewards from both the free GO Pass and GO Pass Deluxe. You can upgrade to a GO Pass Deluxe at any time and still collect rewards from previously unlocked ranks.

Additionally, from Saturday, August 1, at 12:00 a.m. to Sunday, August 2, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. local time, there’s no daily limit for how many GO Points you can earn!

July 2026 Pokémon GO Pass: Is the GO Pass Deluxe Worth Buying?

If you are trying to decide whether to upgrade to the paid version this month, here is a quick value breakdown to help you choose:

  • The PokéCoin Value: 1,400 PokéCoins bought directly from the in-game shop normally costs around $10–$11 USD. Getting 1,400 coins alongside a Super Incubator and extra encounters for $7.99 makes the pass highly cost-effective on currency alone.
  • The Web Store Bonus: If you plan to buy the Deluxe Pass, make sure to purchase it through the official Web Store. The bundle inclusion of 10 Ultra Balls, 5 Max Revives, 5 Max Potions, and a Premium Battle Pass adds roughly $5 of pure bonus utility for no extra cost.
  • Who should skip the July 2026 Pokémon GO Pass? If you cannot play consistently between July 7 and August 4, you may struggle to hit Rank 100 to maximize your rewards, making the free track a safer bet.
