In Pokémon GO the legendary raid hour featuring Mewtwo has been rescheduled. The new date is set for October.
What has been announced? Originally, a legendary raid hour in Pokémon GO was supposed to start every Wednesday in September . However, the plans changed recently due to issues, and the event featuring Mewtwo had to be postponed.
Today, Niantic’s support announced that the legendary raid hour featuring Mewtwo will take place on October 8. The local time of 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM applies again. October 8 is a Tuesday.
What attack does Mewtwo have? On social media, Niantic announced that Mewtwo will only have the attack Confusion in raids until September 23. Trainers are already wondering if Mewtwo will have this attack at the new raid hour date.
In the tweet from Niantic Support, it states that Mewtwo will also have Confusion on October 8.
Why was the raid hour with Mewtwo rescheduled?
What happened? On Wednesday, September 18, trainers were looking forward to heading out in the evening and catching as many Mewtwo as possible with other players. However, Niantic’s support unexpectedly announced that the event for the day has been canceled.
The reason was technical problems that occurred early in New Zealand. At the beginning of the event, no Mewtwo raids appeared at all. This only happened with a delay of over an hour, when trainers had already left the gyms disappointed.
In Australia, the event was supposed to start shortly after. However, there were also problems there. The Mewtwo raids spawned prematurely, without being announced by a raid egg beforehand.
What happens next in Pokémon GO? In October, there are already more events alongside the raid hour that you can look forward to.
