Regigigas is returning to Pokémon Get in five-star raids during the solstice-themed event starting on June 17 and volition stick around until June twenty. Equally a result, not but will all players have a chance to battle this fearsome legendary Pokémon, but its shiny version is besides making its debut. Previously, Regigigas was but available in an exclusive EX-raid, and now all players take a chance to capture it.

In Pokémon Go's solstice-themed event, Lunatone and Solrock will be returning worldwide for players to run into in the wild and the raids.

There is no timed or special research project for this event.

Post-obit the cease of the issue, Lunatone volition announced exclusively in the eastern hemisphere, and Solrock will appear in the western hemisphere. These two follow this blueprint every year and swap every time.

Regigigas' return to Pokémon Go is a pleasant surprise, merely nosotros were originally hoping to see a legendary Pokémon that had not made its advent in the mobile game yet. Niantic gave no hints about what Pokémon would appear in this event, and then we're non too disappointed past this. Because Regigigas was fairly exclusive earlier, it's a good opportunity for players who never had the adventure before due to Regigigas being hidden behind a paid-wall ticket.

Pokémon Go'due south solstice-themed event goes from June 17 to 20, and Regigigas volition be leaving afterwards the event.
