Niantic isn’t done with its jam-packed Pokémon Go events going on towards the end of the year, and the latest one includes a new Pokémon debuting, a new Mega form Pokémon, and more Steel-type wild spawns during event hours.
The Test Your Mettle event begins on Friday, Sept. 16 at 10am local time and concludes Wednesday, Sept. 21 at 8pm local time.
Togedemaru, the roly-poly Pokémon will make its debut during the event and will appear in the wild, in Raids, and in Field Research. Mega Aggron is also making its debut in Mega Raids that take place from the beginning of the event until Sept. 27.
