Over a Thousand Players Gather in Times Square for Mewtwo Battle

Invitations were sent to 2,000 Pokémon Go players in New York City. This was to keep the event small and avoid crowding. The players only knew about special raids near Times Square.

One evening, the game sent messages to ticket holders. They were asked to come to Times Square for a special event. There was a live concert by Loud Luxury. After the concert, players fought Mega Mewtwo Y on large screens. They won the battle.

The event was shown live on Pokémon’s websites and social media. This weekend, a Pokémon Go Fest Global virtual event will allow everyone to join the Mega Mewtwo Y battle from home. It will be free for all players.

More than 800 million people have played Pokémon Go in ten years. In 2024, the game had over 100 million active players. Players spent around 45 minutes in the game each day. They have walked over 62 billion miles for the game.

In two years, the number of community ambassadors has increased from 50 to 3,000. Pokémon Go sold nearly 1 million tickets for live events in 2024.
