The legendary titans are awakening, and Pokémon Go is summoning raiders, collectors, and lore enthusiasts back to the field. Leading up to this year's Go Fest: Global, the week-long Ancients Recovered event commences June 23rd, giving you the perfect reason to assemble your raid teams and pursue these formidable giants.
From Regirock to Regigigas, each day will highlight one of the six legendary giants in five-star raids, culminating in a full reunion on June 27th. This isn't just a re-run, either—catching them during the event guarantees they will know their signature attacks, such as Zap Cannon for Registeel and Thunder Cage for Regieleki.

For trainers seeking a true challenge, Max Battles are also available. The fully Gigantamaxed Galar starters—Rillaboom, Cinderace, and Inteleon—will appear in six-star raids. And for those pursuing more than just raid victories, Timed Research offers repeatable tasks focused on the legendary giants, with a special reward: complete it to unlock a surprise choice.
A premium option is available with the $7.99 Fleeting Legends Ticket. This grants access to a Timed Research path that leads to an encounter with your choice of Galarian Articuno, Zapdos, or Moltres. Think of it as a one-time opportunity for a guaranteed legendary bird catch.
Don't miss the Global Challenge, either. Running from June 22nd to 27th, Trainers worldwide can contribute to unlock global bonuses, such as more effective Premier Balls and faster Party Power charge rates, lasting through the end of Go Fest. This makes every raid participation count.
Additionally, lucky Trainers might find certain raid catches featuring new Pokémon Backgrounds. These are visual mementos tied to the event, similar to Location Backgrounds from in-person festivals. While they don't affect gameplay, they're a stylish way to showcase your achievements.
Finally, be sure to visit the Pokémon Go Web Store, which offers new battle pass bundles as well as a comprehensive $99.99 raid-and-hatch box designed for dedicated trainers.
