Pokemon Go May 2022 Updates Include A Month Of Mega Raids And The Season Of Alola's End
Niantic has announced its plans for Pokemon Go for the month of May, and with the Season of Alola event coming into its final days, the game will focus on the newly updated Mega Pokemon mechanic.
Mega Raids will feature heavily throughout May, with multiple Mega Pokemon making their Pokemon Go debut. May 3-10 will see the first ever Mega Legendary Pokemon in Mega Latias and Mega Latios, while Mega Blastoise and Mega Altaria will feature later in the month. Five star raids will complete the set of four Alolan legendaries by adding Tapu Fini to the mix, and the month will end with a week where all four will be featured at the same time.
