In Pokémon GO there will be a raid hour again tonight! This is reported by players from New Zealand who have already encountered increased Mewtwo raids.
What is this event? These raid hours take place regularly on a Wednesday. There will also be a raid hour this week.
During this hour, a legendary raid will appear at each gym that does not currently have a raid or where an EX raid has been triggered. This time it revolves around Mewtwo with armor.
This is reported by players from New Zealand on Reddit. It was already 6 PM there and the raid hour has already taken place.
All information about the first raid hour with Mewtwo
When does it start? As usual, the raid hour starts tonight at 6 PM. Until 7 PM, you will encounter more Mewtwo raids.
Will there only be Mewtwo? Within the hour, you will only encounter Mewtwo with armor. However, if another raid boss has hatched shortly before 6 PM, you can also battle that.
Are the Mewtwo raids worth it? From a usability perspective, Mewtwo with armor is not really useful. It is significantly weaker than the normal Mewtwo.
However, you can collect Mewtwo candies and level up other Mewtwo without armor with them. So the Mewtwo raids are not completely useless.
How many people do you need? For Mewtwo with armor, you should have 4-6 players. Only use Pokémon with attacks from the Dark, Ghost, or Bug types.

Will there be further raid hours with Mewtwo? Niantic has not said anything about that yet. However, it is quite possible that Mewtwo will also appear more frequently in the next two Wednesdays.
After all, there has been a raid hour almost every Wednesday now. It is quite conceivable that Niantic will stick to this pattern.
