You can find the Ball Guy Costume available in Pokémon Go once the event begins in your local timezone, the Go Tour Poké Ball Prep Rally. The event is a way for players to prepare for the upcoming Pokémon Go Tour: Johto event, where players will be attempting to catch a massive number of Pokémon during the event, including several legendary ones. The event begins on February 18 at 10 AM in your local timezone.

Once the event starts, head over to the Pokémon Go store to pick it up for your avatar to wear and show off to your friends. After purchasing them, you can equip them to your avatar to show them off at any time.
