The GO Fest 2021 is getting closer and now has a really good bonus related to legendary Pokémon. Those who have missed some legendary monsters in Pokémon GO can get them at the GO Fest.
This was announced: On the second day of the GO Fest, which takes place on July 17 and 18, all legendary Pokémon that have been in the game so far will appear in Tier-5 raids. That means: On Sunday, July 18, 2021, you have the chance to encounter every single legendary monster in Pokémon GO.
The raid monsters will also appear for players who do not have a ticket. So you don’t even need an event ticket to catch the legendary monsters. However, there will be some advantages for ticket holders at GO Fest 2021:
- There are an additional 10,000 XP per raid won
- You can get up to 10 raid passes when spinning photo discs at gyms
- A limited research will also provide up to 8 remote raid passes
- In addition, there will be an event box in the shop with three remote raid passes that will be available on Sunday, July 18.
So ticket holders can theoretically get a total of 21 raid passes to hunt for legendary monsters.
When will which legendary Pokémon appear?

A really strong bonus for the GO Fest 2021
Who benefits from the bonus? With the legendary Pokémon, the GO Fest suddenly becomes interesting for all players who missed some of the specimens. For example, because they haven’t been available for a long time, or simply because the time windows for the appropriate raids were missed. The opportunity to catch all legendaries at once has not occurred in Pokémon GO until now.
They are not only interesting from a collector’s perspective, but often belong to the best attackers in Pokémon GO. Reshiram, for example, is a top Fire attacker, and the same applies to Zekrom in the Electric category.
And Pokémon GO: Where to get Mewtwo? We explain it! – after all, it’s one of the absolute best monsters in Pokémon GO. The GO Fest now provides the opportunity to collect candy for the most useful legendaries. In addition, you can also hunt the monsters wonderfully as Shinies.
This is what the GO Fest looks like now: It has been known that Saturday would bring habitats with special spawns. There will be a special research, several collector researches, and a focus on music themes.
On Sunday, however, it was only known that it would be focused on raids. Now, with the legendary bonus, we also know how it will look. You can find all information about GO Fest 2021 here.
