Pokémon Go Rising Heroes ends – fans expect new Pokémon in upcoming event

POKÉMON Go is introducing a new season that will follow on from Rising Heroes.

Common wild Pokémon will change, and players expect new ‘mons to be added to the game. 

As there are four seasons in the game every year, this will be a huge change for players.

Here’s everything that’s happening in Pokémon Go from May 29 to June 4.

Houndour takes the spotlight

This week’s Spotlight Hour will take place on Tuesday, May 30, 2023, from 6pm local time.

Houndour, the pre-evolution of Houndoom, is the target of this week’s spotlight hour.

As usual, there are increased spawns and chances to spot a shiny during this hour.

Any Pokémon caught during this hour will also give you double Stardust.

Regigigas returns to raids

Raid Hour will take place on Wednesday, May 31, 2023, from 6pm local time.

Tapu Fini got two weeks in five-star raids, and so will Regigigas

Regigigas is one of the game’s most powerful Pokémon and will be available in every single gym as part of five-star raids.

Mega Altaria, just like Regigigas, will also get two weeks in raids.

A new season will start

A new season for Pokémon Go will begin on Friday, June 2, 2023.

Rising Heroes will end on June 1, and a new season will start covering the next three months.

Details about this haven’t been announced, but there will be a new event to kick things off.

The event will be held on Saturday, June 3, 2023, but again we don’t know what this will be yet.
