The summer-long series of Pokémon GO Fest 2022 events will feature plenty of Raids and chances to catch rare Shiny variants of legendary creatures like Groudon and Kyogre, as well as a few surprises like a Pikachu dressed in a special Pokémon GO Fest 2022 costume. Pokémon GO Fest 2022 is being held in both virtual and live venues, and a social media campaign recently gave players a chance to win free tickets to the latter for finding a rare post containing a Golden Razz Berry.

However, those that attempted to log in during this Pokémon GO promotion encountered extreme lag and crashes that prevented them from being able to access the game in certain time zones. This made even getting to the already-rare Kyogre in Pokémon GO difficult, but thankfully developer Niantic announced that it has already addressed the undisclosed issue that caused this conundrum in the first place.
