Mega Rayquaza Raid Day

Timed Research will be available to Trainers during the event! Complete the research tasks to earn a Meteorite.

Unlike other Mega-Evolving Pokémon, Rayquaza can’t Mega Evolve with Mega Energy alone. Trainers hoping to Mega Evolve their Rayquaza will need to teach it the Charged Attack Dragon Ascent first!

Dragon Ascent can only be learned by using Meteorites.

Please note that Timed Research expires. The tasks associated with Timed Research must be completed and their rewards must be claimed before the Timed Research ends.

For US$4.99 (or the equivalent pricing tier in your local currency), you can purchase a ticket that grants the following bonuses.

• Receive up to eight additional free Raid Passes from spinning Gym Photo Discs (for a total of 14).
• Increased chance to get Rare Candy XL from Raid Battles.
• 50% more XP from Raid Battles.
• 2× Stardust from Raid Battles.

These bonuses will be effective on Saturday, October 18, 2025, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time.

Trainers who purchase the ticket will also receive additional Timed Research during the event! Complete the research tasks to earn a Meteorite.

Please note that this ticket will only be available in the in-game shop until Saturday, October 18, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. local time.
