Pokémon Go Rivals Week 2024 is here, which means you can challenge yourself in the Go Battle League while also encountering featured Pokémon and completing Timed Research along the way.
Running from May 4 to 9 at 8pm local time, you will see certain Pokémon known for being rivals like Zangoose and Seviper spawning more frequently or appearing in raids in Pokémon Go—with a few odd twists based on when you play. Bonuses tied to those encounters are also live, including boosted Shiny odds for a few Pokémon. If you like battling, a Go Battle Weekend is happening on May 4 and 5 with additional opportunities for exclusive rewards.
