This meant it was exclusive to players who attended this event until August 2022, when it became available worldwide for the first time as part of the Go Fest 2022 Finale event. As part of Gen 7, Buzzwole debuted in Pokémon Sun and Moon where it could be encountered during the postgame of Sun. Buzzwole's appearance is a strange combination of a mosquito and bodybuilder.
