Dragon Week is a limited time event in Pokémon Go that was unlocked during Pokémon Go Fest 2020. It is one of the Ultra Unlock Weeks. Participants in the event had to overcome eight global challenges to make it available, which they did in a matter of hours. While players were required to have a Pokémon Go Fest 2020 ticket to unlock the event, Dragon Week is available to everyone. It starts July 31 at 13 p.m. PT and is available until August 7 at 13 p.m. PT. Here's everything we know about it.
