To make up for certain time zones experienced issues joining Raid Battles during Pokémon GO Fest 2026: Global, a make up event will take place on Sunday, July 26th, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. local time for Trainers in time zones UTC+14 through UTC+0.

Pokémon GO Fest 2026: Global - Sunday Raid Battles update

Trainers,
We apologize for the technical issue that Trainers in certain time zones experienced when attempting to join Raid Battles during Pokémon GO Fest 2026: Global. This issue did not consume Raid Passes, but did prevent Trainers from joining Raid Battles as normal.

As compensation for this issue, we will hold a special raid event for all Trainers in Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, up to and including the UTC+0 time zone on Sunday, July 26, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. local time. Raid Bosses featured during the original event–including Mega Mewtwo Y Super Mega Raids–will appear!

There will be no limit on Remote Raids for all Trainers from Saturday, July 25, at 1:00 p.m. PDT to Sunday, July 26, at 12:00 p.m. PDT.

Thank you for your understanding, and we appreciate your continued passion for Pokémon GO!
