Every Legendary Pokémon To Be Featured in Pokémon GO Fest 2021: Raid Day

Get ready for every Legendary raid you’ve been waiting for as every Legendary Pokemon in Pokemon GO makes a return for this GO fest.

Pokémon GO Fest 2021 ticket buyers will have exclusive benefits and since the event isn’t localized to one venue this year, anyone is able to purchase and use the ticket without having to travel.

You’ll also get the chance to add Legendary Pokemon to your collection that you be missing in Pokemon GO. There will be 4 raid hour themes each happening twice during the event. See the blog post below for all the details.

Trainers,

We’ve received reports that every Legendary Pokémon discovered in Pokémon GO so far will be appearing in five-star raids during Pokémon GO Fest 2021! Strange, right? This sort of thing hasn’t happened in the world of Pokémon GO before, so we’re just as puzzled as you are. Hopefully we’ll get some answers during the event as to why this is happening.

Please note that it might be challenging to battle and catch every Legendary Pokémon in the allotted time frame, so plan accordingly!
