Pokémon Go 'Streets to Skies' choose a path — steel or dragon?
Should you pick steel or dragon in the Pokémon Go 2026 Wild Area "Streets to Skies" Special Research? We discuss the options in our guide.
Pokémon Go's 2026 Wild Area event features a ticketed bonus called "Streets to Skies," which presents players with a choice between steel- or dragon-type Pokémon. The pick influences the rewards received throughout the event. After beginning the research by opening the Special Research screen during the event on November 14 or 15, players will unlock this content permanently.
When deciding between steel or dragon, consider your goals. If you prioritize powering up Metagross, the meta pick, choose steel. This will yield an encounter with Metagross, boosting your chances of obtaining Mega Metagross. However, if you're willing to take a chance and hope to catch Latios or Latias, a dragon-type selection might be more rewarding, as these Pokémon grant bonus candy for dragon-pick participants.
The research rewards depend on the chosen track: steel or dragon. Both paths lead to Gigantamax Duraludon at the end, but the journey differs. Steel-pickers receive a Metagross or Hydreigon encounter, along with 1 Star Piece, 1 Poffin, and 1 Lure Module. Dragon-pickers, on the other hand, encounter a Hydreigon or Metagross, gain 1,000 Stardust, and receive 1 Silver Pinap Berry and 1 Golden Razz Berry.
Regardless of your selection, the event offers unique experiences. Be it the pursuit of a powerful Metagross or the excitement of potentially catching Latios or Latias, "Streets to Skies" provides an engaging and rewarding adventure within Pokémon Go's 2026 Wild Area.
