Celebrating the addition of Mega Evolution in Pokemon GO, developer Niantic has released an overview of upcoming events in Pokemon GO over the month of September, including a lead up to a special Halloween Mega Gengar event, starting earlier than usual.
Mega Pidgeot will be the first to unlock with raids, starting September 1st through 7th. Mega Houndoom follows shortly on September 11-17, and the Halloween Research Event for Mega Gengar starts a week later on September 22. As with all raids, players will want to gather together with friends to complete them due to the difficulty and participating players will have to check the game map and radar to pinpoint exact locations the special raids in their area.
Recently, Mega Evolution finally made its way to Pokemon GO with a new Special Research storyline. Certain Pokemon can Mega Evolve using a rare resource called Mega Energy that can only be obtained via Mega Raids. The faster players defeat the Mega Evolved Pokemon in the raids, the more Mega Energy they will receive post-battle. Once players obtain enough Mega Energy, they can Mega Evolve a Pokemon, and the Mega Energy required to Mega Evolve them in the future will reduce significantly. As with the mainline series of games, players can only have one Mega Evolved Pokemon per battle.
Pokemon fans have a lot to look forward to regarding upcoming Pokemon content this year. In addition to the Pokemon GO updates this fall, Pokemon Sword and Shield‘s new DLC, The Crown Tundra, is still expected to release this year, with new leaks hinting at the addition of several Pokemon, including a Pokedex entry for the Dragon/Flying Pokemon, Dragonite. Covid-19 has impacted the development of several Nintendo titles, but no announcement has been made as of yet regarding the effect on the upcoming DLC, so it’s possible for the DLC to stay on track for this year.
Pokemon GO recently received a major change to raids by developer Niantic. The Tier system, which indicated the difficulty of the raid boss players would face, has been reorganized with all the Tier 2 and Tier 4 bosses in Pokemon GO being merged into Tier 1 and Tier 3 levels. The change is intended to streamline the difficulty system leaving only 3 levels of difficulty.
Niantic also announced plans for a Pokemon GO content update beyond September. Mythical Pokemon Victini is the topic of a special research quest in Pokemon GO starting September 30. Special research quests are events that involve sending trainers to various locations to interact with other players and catch different Pokemon.
Pokemon GO is available now on Android and iOS.
