As a dedicated gamer and long-time Pokemon Go player, I’m thrilled to see Mega Rayquaza return for another Special Raid event! The anticipation from the community following the disappointing Elite Raids in June has been palpable, and Niantic is coming through with this highly-anticipated event.

Having had my fair share of Pokemon adventures over the years, I must say that the upcoming Mega Rayquaza Special Raids have got me quite excited! Knowing the date and times, bonuses, shiny possibilities, and the Research quest for the Meteorite item are all crucial pieces of information for trainers like myself. As someone who has been following Pokemon since its inception, I can’t wait to see how this event unfolds and add another legendary Pokemon to my collection!
