Pokémon GO and the UK National Trust are holding events all summer long from July 18th, 2026 to September 6th, 2026 at participating locations across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

Adventure awaits with the National Trust this summer!

This summer, Pokémon GO is teaming up with the National Trust to inspire Trainers to get outside, explore remarkable sites, and create unforgettable memories with family and friends.

From historic houses and castles to gardens, parklands, and coastal landscapes, the National Trust offers countless opportunities for adventure. Trainers will be able to enjoy special Pokémon GO activities at participating National Trust locations across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland from July 18 to September 6.

New PokéStops, Gyms, and Routes

This event features PokéStops and Gyms at 140 National Trust sites where you can discover the area’s rich history while catching Pokémon!

Raids

The following Pokémon will appear in Raid Battles at Gyms at the 27 National Trust sites listed below based on region. If you’re lucky, you may receive a Location Background! Each of the first featured Pokémon that you catch at a site will have that site’s Location Background.

One-Star Raids
Southern England Coast: Hoppip
Midlands and London: Sewaddle
North: Pineco
South West and Wales: Seedot

Timed Research

Timed Research will be available during the event by visiting the participating National Trust sites. Additional Timed Research will become available each month throughout the summer, with separate sets of tasks and rewards available in July, August, and September.

Each participating National Trust site will also feature local Timed Research awarding encounters with Treecko, Grovyle, and Sceptile with that site’s Location Background.

Complete research tasks to earn items and encounters with event-themed Pokémon.

Are you in England, Wales, or Northern Ireland but can’t make it to one of the National Trust sites? Don’t worry—we are preparing some in-game fun for all Trainers with a nationwide Timed Research!
