Event focus
Eternamax Eternatus returns to Max Battles on 21 November 2026. Defeating it awards resources for Eternatus, with no catch encounter afterward. The separate Dynamax Trails GO Pass provides the announced Eternatus encounter or replacement Candy.
Schedule
| Activity | Window | Time basis |
|---|---|---|
| Eternamax takeover at most Power Spots | 21 November, 11:00–14:00 | Local |
| Faster Power Spot refreshes, 2,400 particle collection limit and 8× Power Spot particles | 21 November, 11:00–14:00 | Local |
| Remote Raid daily allowance raised from 10 to 30 | 20 November, 13:00–21 November, 18:00 PST | 20 November, 21:00–22 November, 02:00 UTC |
| Dynamax Trails pass progression cutoff | 23 November, 20:00 | Local |
| Claim unlocked pass rewards | Before 25 November, 20:00 | Local |
The fixed Remote Raid allowance window is separate from the local takeover. It does not extend the takeover or announce remote eligibility for Eternamax Max Battles. At 14:00 local, the takeover ends and Pawniard Community Day begins its main catch session.
Battle encounters and rewards
- Eternamax Eternatus occupies most, not necessarily every, Power Spot during the takeover.
- Wins award a large amount of Eternatus Candy and Candy XL; exact payouts are not enumerated.
- Eternamax cannot be caught after these Max Battles.
The official notice does not give a counter list, minimum party size or numerical win requirement. Check the battle lobby and coordinate a group rather than relying on an invented solo recommendation.
Takeover bonuses
- More frequent Power Spot refreshes.
- Max Particle collection limit increased to 2,400.
- 8× Max Particles from Power Spots.
These are the takeover-window bonuses. Do not assume the increased limit or multiplier applies throughout the wider week. The notice does not announce an eightfold multiplier for every particle source.
Eternatus through the GO Pass
| Route | Announced result |
|---|---|
| Beat Eternamax in Max Battles | Eternatus Candy and Candy XL; no catch encounter |
| Progress through GO Pass: Dynamax Trails without an earlier Eternatus catch | An Eternatus encounter is listed among pass rewards |
| Already caught Eternatus | The pass lists 100 Eternatus Candy instead of another encounter |
| Free and Deluxe pass tracks | Both provide Eternatus Candy and Candy XL; Deluxe provides additional rewards |
Eternatus can only be caught once during this event according to the announcement. No rank for that reward, complete task list or full reward table is provided. The pass is normally received 16 November at 10:00 local. Claiming Into the Wild's Tier 1 rewards grants early access from 14 November, 10:00 local, plus a free Deluxe upgrade. See the full Dynamax Trails guide for access, milestones and optional purchase distinctions.
Preparation
- Locate Power Spots and arrange a group before 11:00; the takeover lasts three hours.
- Plan particle collection around the stated Power Spot multiplier and collection limit, checking your in-game balance before travelling.
- Use the pass for the Eternatus reward route. Winning an Eternamax battle does not unlock an afterward catch.
- Leave time to switch to Community Day plans at 14:00 if you want to play both events.
- Claim earned pass rewards before 25 November, 20:00 local; the later claim period does not extend point earning past 23 November, 20:00.
