The Adidas Collaboration with Pokémon GO is one of the partnerships that bridges the gap between digital adventures and real-world fashion. The Pokémon and adidas will bring a limited-time collection to life both in stores and in-game. Trainers around the globe will soon have the chance to deck out their avatars in exclusive gear while scoring rare in-game bonuses.
If you are looking to elevate your avatar’s wardrobe and earn some valuable rewards along the way, here is everything you need to know about the upcoming Pokémon GO and adidas collaboration event.
Adidas Collaboration Exclusive In-Game Timed Research
The crown jewel of this collaboration is a special, location-based event. Trainers who visit participating adidas stores and select retail locations worldwide can unlock exclusive event-themed Timed Research simply by opening up Pokémon GO at the venue.
Event Start Date: September 25, 2026
Event End Date (to obtain research): January 15, 2027, at 8:00 p.m. local time
Task Completion Deadline: February 13, 2027, at 8:00 p.m. local time
By heading to a participating retail location and grabbing this research before January 15, you will secure exclusive avatar items—specifically an official adidas jacket and cap designed for the collection.
Rewards to Boost Your Gameplay
Beyond looking stylish, completing the Timed Research tasks grants players a variety of useful resources to help with their regular gameplay grind. The research rewards include:
- Generous amounts of XP to help you level up
- Stardust for powering up your favorite Pokémon
- A direct encounter with Lucario
- Valuable Lucario Mega Energy to prepare your fighting-type companion for Mega Evolution
To make the most of these rewards, remember that while you must visit a participating store by January 15, 2027, to get the research, you have until February 13, 2027, to finish the tasks and claim everything.
Global Availability and Future Updates
Trainers globally will be able to participate in the fun. More details soon.
Make sure to plan your trip, keep an eye out for updates on broader global avatar items, and as always, remember to stay safe and aware of your surroundings while playing Pokémon GO!
