Let’s go Can’t wait for tomorrow. Good luck everyone tomorrow and let’s get these shinys

[@Person-person1]

Thanks for the good luck, I wish you good luck too. Get a Shundo.

[@AntoLikesLegos]

Thank you! I wish you great luck too!

[@Retroactive93]

Good luck! Pray I get my first shundo!!

[@lionelmorgan732]

[@chxknfries36]

I got many shinies AND a hundo pheromosa! You spell worked

[@sintha333]

This weekend is going to be a blast....🎉 It's like Pokémon GO Christmas 🎄

[@NPC_Gamiing]

I love how Mega Rayquaza is a top 10 counter for like literally every pokemon even if it's not super effective 😂

[@Adiwaddy]

Billy I had a great time in New York with the raid train. If you don’t remember :I’m the kid that was next to you on every day. Thanks for your commitment to the community and all the fun that you bring everywhere. See you in the future events! Good luck

[@MattyEmmFantasy]

I'll go for Kartana and Xurkitree on Saturday because they're not my regional beasts. I got shiny Pheromosa through the timed research task, so I'll go for it once I get a good one from the previous I've mentioned. However, I have the ticket so I can count on 10 daily passes plus 21 premium passes I saved during these past weeks. I'm ready for this Fest, so stoked!

[@lelouchchanbc]

Another third type 'station' after Pokestop and Gym can be debut in Pokemon Go, that is Stadium. This new Stadium main role in Pokemon Go is place that used to be Dynamax and Gigatamax raid. Stadium another role is raid battle like always played in Pokemon Go right now. Existing gym will has another new role, new NPC gym leaders takes over. Potentially battle with new NPC gym leaders.

[@lDopekilla]

My very first remote raid when Necrozma released in Japan was a hundo, my main goal is my first shundo this GOfest 🤞 can't wait to fuse it

So much money is about to be spent on raid passes this weekend 😅

[@Shadow_718]

I got a Necrozma shundo on my first raid!

[@Danklin559]

I hope we all get a shundo necrozma with background this weekend , amen 🙏😇

[@PotatoQuill]

In these 5 days i have goten 20 ultra beasts and got 3 Shinys and 1 100%

[@tavisource52]

I've gotten 70+ Ultra Beasts and none of them were Shiny or 100%. :(

[@andrewsanderson3905]

I hope tomorrow is better then today

[@chrisgomes2554]

Shiny crabrawler here in Cabo Verde !

[@jsp5533]

Just remote raided a necrozma the night before it starts and I got a shiny first try

[@katiewilliams2729]

Both the raids and the shinys now if I could just settle on which way I'm going to go for the extended special research that ticket holders for global go fest will be getting

[@pohomoua-1388]

I'm here in the U.S is Saturday and Sunday necrozma out for raid

[@oivapyrhonen2504]

Are all the other ultra beasts in raids on sunday or only dusk mane and dawn wings necrozmas?

[@dacubanmofo]

When are the legacy moves being announced? Last go fest we were able to evolve sanshrew metang roselia trapinch etc for legacy moves. Umbreon and espeon this time? The starters? Deino?

[@RamiroRodriguez-y1p]

One question I wondered if you knew the answer to but with the fusing Pokémon does it matter which one is lucky or does dawn wing/dusk mane become lucky when either is lucky?

[@Paintballpro18]

I presume it's the Necrozma due to IVs coming from it

[@GreatPlayer415]

So im a little confused. Do we try to capture Necrozma on Saturday or should I wait till Sunday. Sorry im new to this game

[@Paintballpro18]

From what I gather, Sunday is Necrozma but you get energy per raid. This also of course does come with the fact it is stronger so if you're looking for a bit quicker raid, might want to do it Saturday.

[@danb9665]

@@Paintballpro18better to do both days to get a good Iv incase you don’t get a decent one Sunday.

[@Paintballpro18]

@@danb9665 or have played NYC and gotten some good iv's previously 👉

[@katiewilliams2729]

Thanks for explaining everything but has anyone tested fusion with a best buddy Solgaleo or Lunala I know alot of people have been asking about that

[@mrteyssere]

I see a few ones are missing from your background-infographic. Any particular reason for this? Pheromosa, stakataka

[@Feathersongwolf]

wdym pheromosa and stakataka are on the infographic

[@LosDefinit]

You might be looking at the go fest NYC graphic instead of the global

[@JesusCabelloSchomburg]

I need to ask, if I face Duskmane Necrozma on Sunday, what Pokemon will I have the chance to catch, Necrozma or Solgaleo?

[@Allthingssports24_7]

If I get a ticket Ik In like 2021 I got special Pokémon like tyranatar Will I get better Pokémon like that this year?

[@jeremiahjohnsonyoung]

I’m going for spawns ,raids and the special research hopefully

[@yvonnestory1196]

I know you guys aren’t going to believe me, but I got a shiny necrosma in this morning

[@charliekrueger0413]

If I already have a bad lunala but not solgaleo, should I go with solgaleo for the research to get one?

[@katiewilliams2729]

That's up to you assuming you have the ticket for global go fest

[@OBONEKANOBEEE]

Love it first

[@JA-wj8zo]

Will we be able to potentially catch a shiny necrozma after beating dawn wings/dusk mane on Sunday?

[@Inthecity1939]

He will be available shiny all weekend

[@squozenfrozen1645]

I am a bit worried on Saturday more than half of the raids will end up being necrozma blocking the gyms from the other ultra beasts when it's the only thing you can raid on Sunday. Feel like they should have done all ultra beasts available on both days and had like a 3 hour period each day where dusk mane and dawn wings spawn.

[@Paintballpro18]

For this entire week, we've had each ultra beast released, as well as a raid hour bar Necrozma. If you wanted an ultra beast, should have raided it during the week. Sometimes Niantic doesn't have the best scheduling, but they allowed us all a chance for them all without anything getting in the way.

[@squozenfrozen1645]

@@Paintballpro18 I have raided them, but unfortunately 3 of them are region locked so I couldn't have raided every single one enough times to get the shinies I want without spending an absolute fortune on remote passes, meaning I'll need to focus on the 3 that don't spawn in my region on Saturday. If they're not there because necrozma or my local ones take up all the gyms then what exactly can I do? My point is that the region locked ones in particular should be available for a longer period, or the remote raids pass price lowered back to what it previously was for 1 weekend only.

[@Paintballpro18]

@squozenfrozen1645 I understand they are region locked, but they were available. I know the last time I used remote raids because until today I had 9 remote raids from back when Uxie and Mesprit were re-released without their shinies available and Niantic compensated us (so believe me, I hardly ever remote raid if that gives you an indication). It's all a matter of how bad do you want said things and are you willing to pay for them. I personally have gone for the catch cards, and spent the 9 passes plus 3 more that I purchased each time with the bag/pokemon storage increases. At the end of the day they were indeed available, and I can't fault them for how Saturday might turn out. Honestly to me the biggest crime is having 1 and 3 star raids available during GO tour/fests as literally no one wants those. THOSE take up spots and timers. At least people who don't want to remote raid now can get some Necrozma for their first times while all the ultra beasts have had a week or more each.

[@Bren3669]

Blacephalon and Stakatakka do have shinies, they’re just not available in Pokémon Go yet

around 100

[@brandenvanderzyl9834]

Any know if necrozma appraisal carries to the fusion?

[@SHOCKWAVE6781]

Is anyone going to talk about the shadow Rayquaza thing because either he leaked the next Giovani Pokemon or he’s just trolling

[@lyunlyunn]

If I have a shiny necrzma, after evolving with normal lunaria, does it make it a shiny necrozma?

[@Courraff]

it will still shiny so don't worry

[@MsMoem]

So I have neither the lunala or the solgeo...

[@sekcbeast6713]

How come I haven't seen any Necrozoma and it forms? Can I use remote raid for Necrozoma?

[@katiewilliams2729]

Yes you can remote raid for Necrozuma and it's fusions on Sunday you just need to have friends who can invite you to the raids

[@gamers_tipzz4212]

anyoone know how many solar enertgy per dusk mane raid?

[@WaveyDavey28]

What happens if you fuse shiny necrozma?

[@jcm_9994]

This solar or lunar energy stuff I'm not buying it, I'm not going to be the proud owner of 10 or 20 necromosas just to get energy enough to fuse the four I have are more than enough. You should be able to get it an alternative way like walk your buddy or something.

[@nasimadolly1108]

Is necrozma a legendary or ultra beast?

[@Inthecity1939]

No one really knows what Niantic is gonna do exactly, but I have to believe that his catch rate will be greatly increased, too. It would be a huge slap in the face if not

[@nasimadolly1108]

@@Inthecity1939 yeah I bro I just checked and it's a legendary

[@katiewilliams2729]

Necrozuma is a legendary or people who are familiar with the anime and the main series pokemon games consider Necrozuma an unofficial ultra beast because in the main series pokemon games that you have access to the Ultra Beasts in you usually get Necrozuma right along side them

so save raid pass for solgaleo?

There is no solgaleo

Suggest new schedule for Pokemon Festival and Regional Tours in Pokemon Go but Niantic likely won't implement it until Pokemon Go shut down. Both huge in game events Pokemon Festival and Regional Tours start at 9.00a.m to 1p.m. in your (country local time) morning session. After that, break time for Pokemon Go players within 1.00p.m to 4.00p.m.(local country time) this 3 hours allow all Pokemon Go players to have their lunch ( food & beverage) also time to recharge smartphone, auto catcher also portable battery charger. (local country time) 4p.m. to 8p.m.(local country time) evening session Pokemon Festival and Regional Tours. Yeah! First ever night experience in Pokemon Festival and Regional Tours in Pokemon Go! After 8.00 p.m. ( local country time), the end of the both huge Pokemon Go in game events and Pokemon Go players enjoy dinner or back to homes. ( taking bath)

[@jeremiahmarsh6021]

I never understood why people care what counters to use in raids. If your group is big enough, it doesnt matter lol

[@bigmel26]

Because some ppl take raids seriously and don't have the patience of seeing other ppl using ground on a flying type raid boss, for example.

[@myveryownpants]

say that everyone in one group didn’t care abt counters and brought all normal types to a stakataka raid and assumed everyone else wouldn’t bring the right stuff, it wouldn’t be that fun, would it?

[@cesarkaisersanchez5048]

My Lugia OWNZ

[@Paintballpro18]

Because some people refuse to leave a rural area (dunno why) so counters mean more to them when you're battling some rather more defensive pokemon.
