The Battle League is a large component of Pokémon Go, giving you the chance to test your best Pokémon against other trainers. The Battle League is broken up into three month seasons, where there’s a strict schedule you can follow to earn a variety of rewards.
These rewards are based on the amount of time, effort, and how much you rise in the Battle League ranks. You can earn seasonal rewards based on your placement, which can net you exclusive Pokémon encounters or items for your avatar. Here’s the full Pokémon Go Battle League schedule and every reward you can get for August 2024.

All Battle League rewards in Pokémon Go
Many of the Battle League rewards you receive in Pokémon Go involve exclusive Pokémon encounters and avatar items. The avatar items are cosmetic, but the Pokémon encounters could make it easier to track down some of the best Pokémon in the game outside of completing five-star or Mega Raids. You have a guaranteed rank-up Pokémon encounter for ranks one, six, Ace, Veteran, Expert, and Legend: Wingull, Scraggy, Deino, Goomy, Jangmo-o, and Pikachu Libre, respectively.
These are the rewards you can expect to get in Pokémon Go as you move through the ranks in the Battle League. Whenever you get a Pokémon encounter, it’ll be one of these listed Pokémon, and then the pool adds more choices for the next rank.
