June 2022’s Legendary and Mega Battle Raid schedule for Pokemon GO may look like retreading a lot of old ground at first glance, but there’s actually a few things to be excited about with these returning bosses. Kyogre and Groudon are kicking off this month’s Battle Raid activities and then later in June Mewtwo will be returning to Legendary Battle Raids with some interesting move sets that could help shake up the PoGO metagame....
Charizard is the final stage of the Charmander evolutionary line, originally debuting in the first generation of Pokemon. In Pokemon GO, Charizard has been in-game since the game’s first launch and is still as powerful and popular as ever.

Cliff, Arlo, and Sierra are back and players will want to update their rosters for the new matchups.

Niantic isn’t releasing all of Gen 3 at once, but a new batch of Hoenn region Pokemon are now available thanks to a forced update. In addition, the game’s new weather system is live, as well. It’s cloudy where we’re writing this, so Fairy, Fighting, and Poison-types are appearing more frequently, giving bonus stardust, and are stronger in battle. Pokemon GO’s official Twitter account made the news public earlier today…...
Of course, since these beloved events began all the way back in January, there’s a good chance a few players can’t remember which Pokemon will be featured during this event. Beyond that, this is a good chance for those who have missed an event or two to finish this year strong before hopefully moving into a new rotation of Pokemon. To that effect, we’ve compiled this list of featured Pokemon that will appear during the event, ordered by the date on which their particular Pokemon GO Community Day occurred....
Unsurprisingly, some of the most valuable Pokemon that Pokemon GO players can trade are regional exclusives. Regional exclusives are going to be in high demand as these are the least likely Pokemon that players will own. This means that players, desperate to get their hands on a Pokemon that isn’t available to them without spending thousands on plane tickets and accommodation, will be willing to trade something rare for it....
The main purpose behind Jessie and James coming back to Pokemon GO is the Secrets of the Jungle event. This event will be running from Friday, October 1 to Sunday, October 10. It is unknown if Jessie and James will go away again once the event is over, but it’s still recommended to look for them as soon as possible. RELATED: Pokemon GO: How to Beat Sierra (October 2021)...
As expected, the leaders of Team GO Rocket are some of the toughest non-player trainers that players can face in Pokemon GO. One of these leaders is Sierra, a user of powerful and dangerous Pokemon. RELATED: Pokemon GO: What Is the Kanto Tour Bonus Event? While Sierra will only use three Pokemon at a time, only the identity of her first Pokemon is guaranteed. Sierra’s second and third party members can be one of three Pokemon each in their own separate pools....
With that in mind, many Pokemon GO trainers are going to want to take advantage of the rare chance to catch Kyogre when it returns to the game this week as part of the Hoenn Celebration event. The week long festivity offers players the chance to fill in any blank Hoenn Pokedex entries thanks to increased spawns, special Egg Hatches, and a lineup of Hoenn Battle Raid bosses. Those limited time Raid bosses happen to include Kyogre, so trainers who are play their cards right can earn a couple of encounters this week and hopefully secure the big blue bruiser....
What makes Bouffalant unique is in how it has joined the ranks of Pokemon GO’s region exclusive Pokemon. This means that Bouffalant can only be found in certain geographical locations around the world. This also means it will be very difficult for a lot of trainers to find one. RELATED: Pokemon GO: How to Catch Emolga for Unova Week While some regional Pokemon span multiple countries, Bouffalant is only available in a small area located in the United States of America....
Recently, a string of active Pokemon GO players reported receiving these promo emails, even though they haven’t stopped playing. The email offered a promo code that could be redeemed for three egg incubators and a lucky egg. For players who like to hatch eggs or are still on the grind to level 40, that’s a pretty awesome gift pack. The active players were confused at first, since they had never stopped playing the game, but it seems like the mystery may be solved....
As each Battle Raid rotation comes and goes, players should take the time to check out who the incoming Mega boss is and update their counter roster accordingly. Pokemon GO trainers may need to use some Stardust, TMs, and Candy to properly prepare when a brand new boss shows up. When it comes to getting ready for Mega Slowbro, trainers are going to get a chance to put a wide variety of Pokemon to use in their counter lineups....

On Iron Island, players will need to traverse their way through a cave, defeating a few trainers and collecting hidden items along the way. Eventually, players will run into an NPC named Riley, who is donning a blue-colored outfit. He will join players in a couple of double battles in the cave and then a Team Galactic battle to wrap it all up. Once the fight ends, he’ll thank players by giving them a mysterious egg....
Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl’s Secret Bases are a location that is of the player’s design, accessible only in the Grand Underground. This can only be accessed when the player has obtained the Explorer’s Kit, found in Eterna City. Once they are able to explore the Underground and complete a few objectives from the Underground Man, they will be given the proper Digger Drill tool. This will allow them to use the Digger Drill to dig through any wall and create their Secret Base....
A rather common type of glitch players run into is softlocks, which can occur in different ways, such as the post-game content softlock caused by the appearance of Drifloon in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl being tied to a weekly event. Another form of softlock is when players get stuck somewhere without a chance to free themselves, and this can even lead to the save becoming unsalvageable in some cases....
Speaking with Bloomberg, Ishihara revealed that he was initially skeptical of the Nintendo Switch. While an understandable stance prior to the system’s rise to prominence, Ishihara admits that quality software appears to be a great motivator for consumers to invest their time and money into new hardware. Despite success thus far, the CEO still feels as if developers and consumers shouldn’t “overestimate its potential.” Third-party developers have shown similar levels of skepticism regarding the Switch following Nintendo’s commercially abysmal Wii U console, so it’s easy to see why any company (let alone the second-party giant known as The Pokemon Company) would display caution....
