So yeah, if you missed them during GO Fest or want that Shiny flex, this is your moment.

Why It Matters: The Meta & the Mythos
These aren’t your average Legendary Raids:
- Origin Forme Dialga and Palkia originate from Pokemon Legends: Arceus
- Roar of Time and Spacial Rend are signature moves, likely to be top-tier in raids, PvP, and Master League metas
- These are rare forms with distinct visuals, meaning their Shiny versions are even more exclusive
Plus, this wraps up the Ultra Unlock reward cycle from GO Fest 2025, following:
- Hisui Celebration (Zorua, Zoroark)
- Steel and Scales (Honedge line debut)
Tips to Maximize the Raid Day
- Prep your counters: Focus on Fairy, Dragon, and Fighting-types for Dialga; Dragon and Fairy-types for Palkia.
- Clear your storage for catching Shiny variants or high IV monsters.
- Use a Lucky Egg if you’re going for XP grind mode.
- Coordinate with friends or local groups to tackle as many Raids as possible. Remote Raids are a great fallback.
