Want to catch Thundurus, Tornadus, and Landorus without doing raids? Good news! Niantic is offering promo codes that unlock special timed research. These allow you to encounter these Legendary Pokémon directly in the game, without relying on raid luck. It’s a great opportunity to complete your Pokédex with minimal effort.
These codes must be redeemed before March 1, 2025, so don’t wait too long. Here are the codes to enter for each research task:
Tornadus: 4RD3GGA4ZMEGP
Thundurus: 4Q4UZLY6MUH9K
Landorus: 9PTA874LYDAJH
However, you can no longer enter them directly in the Pokémon GO app. To activate them, go to Niantic’s official website, log in with your Pokémon GO account, enter the corresponding code, and confirm. Once done, you’ll receive an in-game message confirming that the timed research has been added to your account.
These research tasks aren’t just free bonuses—they require some effort. For each one, you’ll need to catch 156 Pokémon from the Unova region. Once you complete this objective, you’ll finally get to encounter Thundurus, Tornadus, or Landorus and attempt to catch them. If you’re looking to strengthen your team with powerful and rare Pokémon, this is an opportunity you don’t want to miss.
These codes remain valid until March 1, 2025, just before the Pokémon GO Tour: Unova event on March 1-2, 2025. This event will spotlight the Unova region, featuring appearances of Black Kyurem, White Kyurem, and even Shiny Meloetta. It’s the perfect chance to catch even more exclusive Pokémon and add legendary creatures to your collection.
To make the most of this opportunity, redeem these codes as soon as possible. It’s a rare chance to get Thundurus, Tornadus, and Landorus without relying on raids—so grab them while you can!
