Pokémon GO finally brings Armored Mewtwo back after 6 years – Here’s how to get it

Pokémon GO Mewtu Rüstung

Armored Mewtwo is finally returning to Pokémon GO. Here you will find all the information about it.

What kind of Pokémon is this? Mewtwo is likely known to everyone, but Armored Mewtwo is a special case. This monster is known from two Pokémon movies – and theoretically also from Pokémon GO. But only if you played six to seven years ago.

And since then? Nothing. Armored Mewtwo has not been seen again and has consequently become one of the most desired Pokémon for many trainers who never had the chance to catch it. 

It has become a coveted trade Pokémon and almost a kind of myth among Pokémon GO fans. But now the time has come: Mewtwo is returning.

When will Armored Mewtwo be released?

Armored Mewtwo will appear during Mega Finale. This takes place on September 5 and 6, 2026. Armored Mewtwo will appear in Level 5 raids. So you have two days to secure this monster from raids. However, the battle is unlikely to be too easy.

Important: At that time, you will not have the opportunity to catch Armored Mewtwo as a Shiny. Nevertheless, this is your chance to catch the monster. Who knows when it will return again. On the following page, we will summarize the information about Armored Mewtwo in a clear overview.
