Raid Hours are one of Pokémon GO’s most consistent weekly events. Every Wednesday from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time, Trainers worldwide can join the Pokémon GO Raid Hour to battle the current Legendary Raid Boss in Five-Star Raids. During Raid Hours, a Legendary Pokémon appears at all Gyms that can host a Raid at that time.
Pokémon GO events in the 2026 season operate using a single age division, meaning that tournaments will be for all ages! Players must have an existing Pokémon GO account linked to a player ID in order to participate in Pokémon GO League events. The format for the Pokémon GO Championship Series will be Great League, to prepare for competition at the regional level we will also use the great league locally.
Players will be encouraged to report best of 3 round wins to get free codes to unlock prizes in Pokémon GO following Raid Hour!
