In March 2020, a legendary event takes place on every weekend in Pokémon GO. Then Giratina, Darkrai, Kobalium, and Lugia return. We will show you how it works.
What kind of events are these? In March 2020, Niantic is not holding back with special events that change the gameplay in Pokémon GO. Several events are scheduled for this month, including one on every weekend.
Every Friday, a legendary Pokémon will appear in the gyms of Pokémon GO. All of them have appeared in the game before. If you missed them, now is your chance to catch them. Hopefully even in their Shiny form.
This is definitely worth it for the collectors among you.
Weekend from 6.3. to 9.3 with Darkrai
When does the event take place? From Friday at 08:00 AM to Monday at 10:00 PM local time. At the same time, the big Rocket event in Pokémon GO is happening.
What’s happening? During this time, you will find the legendary Pokémon Darkrai in 5-star raids. And if you are lucky, you might even find it in its Shiny form, which you can then catch.
Darkrai is one of the best attackers of the Dark type. The raids this weekend are particularly worth it.
To succeed in the raids, you should use these counters against Darkrai.
Weekend from 13.3. to 16.3. with Giratina
When does the event take place? From Friday at 08:00 AM to Monday at 10:00 PM local time.
What’s happening? During this time you will encounter Giratina’s Altered Form in the 5-star raids. If you are lucky, you might also encounter its Shiny form.
If you use these Pokémon, you can even defeat Giratina with three players.
If you are active in the Battle League in Pokémon GO, this Pokémon is particularly valuable. Giratina is one of the best Pokémon for the Hyper League.
Weekend from 20.3. to 23.3. with Kobalium
When does the event take place? From Friday at 08:00 AM to Monday at 10:00 PM local time.
What’s happening? During the event time, you will find the legendary Pokémon Kobalium in the 5-star raids. With a little luck, even in its Shiny form.
What’s special about these raids is that Kobalium knows the move “Sacred Sword” if you catch it during the event time.
If you use the ideal counters, you can defeat Kobalium at level 30 with just three players.
Weekend from 27.3. to 30.3. with Lugia
When does the event take place? From Friday at 08:00 AM to Monday at 10:00 PM local time.
What’s happening? During the event time, you will find the legendary Pokémon Lugia in the 5-star raids. You can find the best counters against Lugia here.
It has been a guest in Pokémon GO several times and now gives you the chance to catch it as Shiny again.
If you catch Lugia during the event time, it will know the move Air Slash.
