Location Cards

Location Cards in Pokémon GO are special souvenir backgrounds that appear on a Pokémon's summary page, indicating where the Pokémon was caught in the game.

Trainers have a chance to receive Location Cards after catching certain Pokémon from in-person Raid Battles at specific locations during certain events. Location Cards serve as a way for Trainers to remember and commemorate special events or locations they have visited in the game. When the Trainer catch a Pokémon during the event, and if it qualifies for a Location Card, the card will display an image related to the area where the Pokémon was caught.

The Location Card appears on the Pokémon's summary page, and it rotates with the previous background of the Pokémon's summary page.
