What's the buzz in Pokémon GO?

It's no biggie to spot Eggs hovering above Gyms in Pokémon GO. But every now and then, Ultra Wormholes pop up in their stead. These wild portals are the gateways for Ultra Beasts to barge into the Pokémon GO universe.

Here's the lowdown on everything you gotta know about Ultra Wormholes in Pokémon GO and the Ultra Beasts they unleash.

🎯What are Ultra Wormholes in Pokémon GO?

An Ultra Wormhole in Pokémon GO is basically like a Five-Star Egg that might show up above a Gym. But hold on, instead of a regular Legendary Pokémon, it's a one-way ticket to an encounter with an Ultra Beast.

Wanna scope out if there are any Ultra Wormholes spawning close by? Just peek into the Nearby menu. If you spot a portal symbol, that's your cue that a Wormhole is lurking nearby.

Ultra Wormholes only make their grand entrance when there's an Ultra Beast in the current Raid Boss rotation. As of November 2024, Nihilego is in the mix and will be strutting its stuff in Gyms during the Into the Wild event. And mark your calendars, there's also a Nihilego Raid Hour on Tuesday, November 19.

🐾Pokémon GO Ultra Beasts

So far, Pokémon GO has ten Ultra Beasts that could come charging out when you spy a Wormhole nearby.

Nihilego
Pheromosa
Buzzwole
Celesteela
Kartana
Xurkitree
Guzzlord
Stakataka
Blacephalon

These Ultra Beasts are some of the heavyweights in the whole game. Take Nihilego, for example. It's the crème de la crème of Non Mega Poison-type Pokémon in the game. And Xurkitree? It's the second-best Electric-type, trailing only behind Shadow Raikou.

That means if you chance upon an Ultra Wormhole on your Nearby page in Pokémon GO, it's totes worth gearing up for that raid and nabbing yourself a powerhouse Pokémon.

💪How to catch an Ultra Beast in Pokémon GO

Catching Ultra Beasts is a piece of cake, just like any other Legendary Raid. Once you whoop that Raid, you'll score a set number of Balls to hurl in an attempt to capture the Pokémon. Unless the Ultra Beast is shiny, there's no guarantee you'll snag it.

Keep your peepers peeled on your local Gyms in Pokémon GO, and dash over whenever you spot an Ultra Wormhole.
