What’s happening? In Pokémon GO, the GO Fest 2021 started today, on July 17th. It runs on Saturday and Sunday and brings different raid bosses to the game’s gyms on both days.
In this overview, we show you all the raid bosses that you can battle on Saturday.
Current raid bosses on Saturday, July 17th
These bosses are active: In the level 1 raids, you will find Galar Zigzagoon and also Galar Ponyta. Both are wearing their hats for the GO Fest and are therefore visually striking.
In the level 3 raids, among others, you will also encounter Capoeira.
| Raid difficulty | Boss |
| 1 | Galar Ponyta* Galar Zigzagoon* Trapinch* |
| 3 | Galar Muk Capoeira Krookodile |
| 5 | Mewtwo* |
| Mega | Mega Gengar* |
Pokémon marked with a star can be found in their shiny form.
The raid times are now as usual during the GO Fest and are not extended or shortened.
For many of you, Mewtwo in the 5-star raids is currently the big highlight. If you need tips for the raid, you will be well taken care of here at MeinMMO. In our counter guide to Mewtwo in Pokémon GO, you will find the currently best counters against the boss.

This is known: On the second day of GO Fest 2021, that is, July 18th, everything revolves around the raids. All legendary Pokémon that have appeared in the game so far will appear in the level 5 raids. Mysterious Pokémon are excluded. What sounds crazy actually has a system.
