As with most recent events and additions to Pokemon Go, Rayquaza will be available from 1 PM on 31 July, regardless of your current time zone. We don’t know if Rayquaza is coming back again anytime soon so here is your chance to get it and even have a chance for it to be Shiny!
Like most legendaries, Rayquaza will be available through a five star raid. You will need a Raid Pass in order to encounter Rayquaza. If you don’t have one, then you can either get it from a gym which has an egg icon above it or you can purchase it from the in-app store.
Rayquaza is a Dragon/Flying type. Your best bet to defeating Rayquaza would be with Ice Types, other powerful Dragon Types or even Rock Types. Rayquaza will be in a 20-man Raid Battle so better be prepared for a challenging fight!
Right before tweeting, Pokemon Go announced in a statement:
Team Rocket has also been recently added in to Pokemon Go. They have been popping up in different Pokestops and giving “Shadow” Pokemon once you manage to defeat a Team Rocket Grunt. You will be able to get medals for stopping Team Rocket Grunts as well as purifying different Shadow Pokemon.
