Pokemon Day is here, so try not to be too confused by the fact that the activities last longer than 24 hours. There's nearly a full week of special features and bonuses taking place, so trainers have a lot to keep track of if they want to take full advantage of the special event.
When it comes to Pokemon GO Battle Raids this week, there's a ton going on thanks to Pokemon Day. Some popular Gen 1 Raid bosses are back with a special twist, so raiders are going to be out in full force over the next few days to make sure they don't miss a chance to catch these clone and armored bosses.
The week includes a handful of bonuses related to special spawns and special trades, but for now, let's put a spotlight on what's happening in Pokemon GO Battle Raids this week...
Date + Time
Tuesday, February 25, 2020, at 1:00 p.m. to Monday, March 2, 2020, at 1:00 p.m. PST (GMT −8)
Raid Features and Bonuses
Armored Mewtwo strikes back in five-star raids! Not only is Armored Mewtwo in Pokémon: Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution, but it will be returning to raids as well with the special Charged Attack Psystrike.
Remember Clone Pokémon? Well, some are coming to Pokémon GO! In celebration of the Pokémon Day launch of Pokémon: Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution on Netflix, special Clone Pokémon—including Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise—will appear in four-star raids. Be sure to use #GOsnapshot during the event, too—Clone Pikachu might appear in your photo, and you might be able to catch it!
For now, players may want to keep hunting down the best Unova Pokemon in the game if improving their Battle Raid rosters is their primary goal. Be sure to check back in the near future for more Pokemon GO strategy guides, news, and updates. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!
Pokemon GO is available now in select regions on Android and iOS devices.
