Pokemon GO has teased the return of the Gen 8 Legendary Eternatus for its ongoing Twilight Trails season. While Legendary monsters tend to be absent from the game periodically, Pokemon GO often holds limited events that allow them to reappear. However, Eternatus has been missing for a particularly long time.

Eternatus, one of Pokemon Sword and Shield's three main Legendaries, first made its Pokemon GO debut during the Max Finale weekend in August 2025. Players were able to catch a single copy of Eternatus by progressing through the event's GO Pass. Eternamax Eternatus could also be defeated in Max Battles, which granted fans a ton of Candy. After the event, Pokemon GO announced that Eternatus would return in the future, but it has been over a year of silence for the Poison/Dragon-type. Now, a new trailer suggests that the wait is finally over.

Pokemon GO's November GO Pass gives free players 400 PokeCoins, raising questions about how rewarding its free track should really be.

Pokemon GO has shared a brief 15-second trailer showing a Power Spot on the horizon, followed by a giant creature in the air that greatly resembles Eternamax Eternatus. The video also shows dark, cloudy skies, much like the in-game sky looked during the Max Finale event. This would confirm the long-awaited comeback of Eternatus during Pokemon GO's current Twilight Trails season, which ends on December 1. Fans will likely receive more information on Eternatus' return in the coming weeks.

The trailer also shows a group of Trainers camping in the wild with Gen 8 starters.
