The Might and Mastery season in Pokémon GO is drawing to a close, culminating with Final Strike: GO Battle Week from May 21-27, 2025. This finale event offers trainers the ultimate chance to complete Kubfu's evolution journey.
Final Strike: GO Battle Week Highlights
After months of training, Kubfu can finally evolve into the legendary Urshifu - with two distinct battling styles available. Your combat choices determine whether you unlock the powerful Single Strike or swift Rapid Strike form.
To obtain Single Strike Urshifu, keep Kubfu as your buddy and defeat 30 Dark-type Pokémon in raids or Max Battles. For Rapid Strike Urshifu, achieve the same feat against 30 Water-types during the event window.
A limited-time Special Research continues the seasonal narrative until June 3, 2025, rewarding Kubfu Candy, Mysterious Components, and encounters with unique Pokémon like Charcadet featuring special backgrounds.
