Regigigas will be appearing in five-star raids until July 1, with shiny Regigigas and new raid-related Field Research being added to the game. Certain Pokémon, like Lunatone and Solrock, will be appearing more frequently around the globe, while others like Yanma and Snorunt will only be appearing in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere respectively.
