Niantic itself officially confirmed that This weekend of July 22 - 23, Legendary Pokémon will arrive And if you want to know how to hunt them, we recommend that you read this article as we will try to give you some trick so that you can take some of them with you.
Hunting these Legendary Pokémon is not as simple as walking around the city between parks or similar until one of them appears spontaneously, to get these Pokémon we will need to work together with other players and use the raids, the "legendary raids."
This is the official statement in which Niantic herself explains to us how we can capture these powerful creatures, Legendary Pokémon:
Players prowling the world exploring or participating in raids would do well to keep an eye on the gyms. In some of them a legendary egg will appear. If players manage to defeat the Pokémon inside, they will have a chance to hunt it down.
Legendary Pokémon can be used in battles against other Pokémon, legendary or not, but they will not leave the company of their trainer. In other words, they cannot be used to defend gyms. On July 22, the thousands of trainers who come to Grant Park (Chicago) for the Pokémon Go Fest will be able to collaborate in unlocking rewards for the entire community.
If they manage to catch enough Pokémon for the duration of the challenges, the first Legendary Pokémon will appear in Grant Park. At the end of the festival, legendary creatures will begin to appear all over the world.
It seems to us that this weekend Pokémon Go players will be more hooked than ever to the game that revolutionized the Pokémon world last year. Also this week we have also seen an important update for the game in which several new features are added. Niantic wants to give Pokémon Go a new boost this summer and they are definitely getting it done, Will you go looking for these Legendary Pokémon?
