Pokemon Go codes updated August 30, 2026
Niantic released new Pokemon Go promo codes on August 30, 2026, for a 2026 Worlds Tee and timed research events.
Niantic has released new active promo codes for Pokemon Go players to redeem. The source list was updated on August 30, 2026, by Shaun Walton, with a new code for a 2026 Worlds Tee.
These codes provide shortcuts to in-game items like clothing, timed research tasks, and bundles. Players can claim Fusion Energy, Timed Research, Poke Balls, and other gifts. The codes are collected and expanded weekly, according to the source.
Active Pokémon Go codes
The source provides a list of active codes. They offer various rewards, from cosmetic outfits to special research tasks. Some have upcoming expiration dates.
| Code | Reward | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| SANFRANCISCO2026 | 2026 Worlds Tee (Green) | New addition |

Expired and questionable codes
Many codes have expired. The source lists a long string of them, including GOFEST2024 and CAPTAINPIKACHU. It also notes codes that are possibly expired.
Pokémon Go does not have any promo codes that never expire, the source states. Some codes last a very long time, which might create that impression. One code believed to always be valid is LRQEV2VZ59UDA for a 3-piece Verizon outfit.
Specific codes for Poke Coins and items are listed, but some may have expired. These include HELPPOKEMON for PokeCoins and DJTLEKBK2G5EK for a 1 PokeCoin, 3 Remote Raid Pass Bundle. The possibly expired list includes rewards like incubators and outfit pieces from Gucci.
How to redeem codes
Redeeming codes differs by platform. On iOS devices, you cannot use the app directly. You must visit the Niantic Offer Redemption page on the web, log in, and paste your code there.
Android players have an additional option. They can enter codes directly in the app. In Map View, tap the PokéBall, then the shop button. A text field at the bottom of the screen allows for code entry.
After submission, a prompt in the app confirms receipt. Items appear in bubbles on screen before going to the appropriate inventory.
Source and updates
The original list was compiled by Jupiter Hadley. Shaun Walton provides updates. Niantic releases new codes often for cosmetics or items like potions and Raid passes. These codes last for a limited time.
The source encourages players to comment if they find expired codes for quick list updates. For those seeking new friends to play with, the source mentions a Pokémon Go friends page.
