The first of these Ultra Unlocks, titled Better Together, adds a few unique bonuses from July 17, 10am local time, until July 22, 8pm local time, and adds a new Pokémon from the Paldea region to add to your Pokédex.

There’s a lot to talk about, so here’s everything you can expect over the weekend.
