In addition to the new Special Research, players can expect to see a plethora of legendary Pokemon appearing in Raid Battles during Mischief Unbound. During the event, players can obtain a free Hoopa T-Shirt, which will also be sold in the game's Store once Mischief Unbound comes to an end. Hoopa can be changed from Confined to Unbound form with 50 Hoopa Candies and 10,000 Stardust, and back to Confined form with 10 Candies and 2,000 Stardust. As a result, players will have the opportunity to change Hoopa's form in the game for the first time. The event's Special Research centers around a mysterious bottle delivered to Professor Willow's doorstep, which hints at Hoopa's other forms. ![]() Pokemon GO is available now in selection regions on Android and iOS devices.To progress through the new Special Research, Pokemon Go players must have obtained Hoopa. Overall, Hoopa has an interesting role in Pokemon lore, and it'll be interesting to see how Hoopa Confined/Hoopa Unbound works whenever it's added. To add insult to injury, theres already competitive Psychic-types in the meta like Hypno and Cresselia who perform much better. Of course, that's the anime and the lore as it works in video games tend to err simpler for non-mascots. Hoopa performs poorly in Great League for two primary reasons: its high ATK stat results in fragile bulk, and its slow moveset causes it to fall behind most meta Pokemon. The movie goes a little further, showcasing a ton of legendaries as well as Shadow, and it's clear that Hoopa isn't really so mean. Thankfully, a "lone traveler" manages to seal the Pokemon in a bottle, much like various Genie myths. According to the official Pokemon GO site, the Mischief Unbound event will last from Friday, November 26, 2021, at 10:00 a.m. Using its rings, it summoned Pokemon and defeated them over and over, eventually summoning legendary/mythical Pokemon and wrecking the village in the process.

It stole food but summoned tons of gold via its Special rings, and over a few years, it would fulfill the villagers' wishes in exchange for food. In the movie, Hoopa and the Clash of Ages, that's where this is really established. A hundred years prior to the movie, Hoopa Unbound appeared in a small desert village. Either way, Hoopa Confined is a Psychic/Ghost-Type, while Hoopa Unbound is a Psychic/Dark-type. And perhaps because of its secondary typing, the "wishes" it fulfills doesn't always turn out as intended. ![]() Hoopa being able to summon other Pokemon to battle for it is derived from its lore. Hoopa is based on a Genie, which is no surprise when looking at its design, and that's why base games has it alternate forms based on a Prison Bottle Item, as well as storage boxes. Other potential inspirations include Nazha, a multi-armed trickster deity from Taoism that has a similar heavy emphasis on Rings, or the Shakti, a multi-armed Hindu deity made of comic energy. The legendaries it summoned could be allies, but it's also possible for it to turn hostile. During so, Hoopa rotates between it Confined and Unbound forms, and the Pokemon Leader may even ask Hoopa to summon a Legendary via one of its rings (which is how the Pokemon GO research justified the raids). It's available as a non-recruitable ally via the Sand Continent in Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon, accompanying the players team only for the next immediate exploration.

Hoopa's overall lore, between its Confined and Unbound forms, is quite interesting. As many fans may know, Hoopa's base form is actually referred to as Hoopa Confined, with certain actions required in the mainline games to unlock Hoopa Unbound. It'll be interesting to see how catching Hoopa works in Pokemon GO, as well as it forms afterward. ![]() However, because of this, it stands to reason Hoopa will making a future experience. Pokemon GO's Strange Rings Special Research tasks clearly indicate that Hoopa was the focus, but it was not catchable during the event. Pokemon GOFest 2021 has come to an end, and while many were anticipating Hoopa making an appearance, it seems it was for naught. ![]()
