Terrakion, Virizion, and more!

Pokemon Go Fest 2021 will be held on July 17 and July 18, 2021. Each day of this two-day event has a different theme, with Day 1 having the theme of “Catch” and Day 2 having the theme of “Raid.”

Ahead of Pokemon Go Fest, Niantic, the developer of Pokemon Go, announced some exciting news for players: Day 2 of Pokemon Go Fest 2021 (Raid Day) will feature every Legendary Pokemon that has appeared in Pokemon Go so far! (As of this writing, it appears Legendary Pokemon with mutiple formes will only appear in one forme on Raid Day.)

The game’s Raid Day festivities will be broken into timed segments that have different themes. During each of these segments, a different group of Legendary Pokemon will appear in Raids.

Here’s the schedule of timed segments for Raid Day:

  • Wind Hour – 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. local time and 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. local time
  • Lava Hour – 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. local time and 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. local time
  • Frost Hour – 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. local time and 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time
  • Thunder Hour – 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. local time and 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. local time

Next, here are the Legendary Pokemon that will appear in Raids during these themed blocks of time:
