Cresselia is no longer available in Pokemon Go, but players can now capture a new Legendary in the game. Following the Lunar Pokemon's departure earlier this week, Kyogre, the Legendary Water-type from Pokemon Sapphire, has made an encore appearance in Raid Battles--and if you're lucky enough, you may have a chance to catch its Shiny form.

　　Kyogre will appear in Raids from now until June 27. As before, you'll first need to team up with other players in-person and battle the Legendary Pokemon before you can have an opportunity to capture it. Kyogre is a pure Water-type, which makes it susceptible to Grass- and Electric-type Pokemon. Your best bet for success is to bring along monsters such as Roserade, Leafeon, Manectric, and Magnezone when challenging it.

　　Now Playing: Pokemon Sword & Shield: Every Detail You Might Have Missed | E3 2019

　　Kyogre is the second of three Legendary Pokemon developer Niantic is bringing back to Go. After it leaves on June 27, its counterpart from Pokemon Ruby, Groudon, will take its place until July 10. Just as was the case with Kyogre and Cresselia, you'll also have a chance to encounter a Shiny Groudon when it returns to Raids. You can read more details on the official Pokemon Go website.

　　Kyogre's return comes on the heels of the annual Pokemon Go Fest, which took place in Chicago this past weekend. As a reward for completing enough Global Challenges during the event, Niantic is giving players twice the usual amount of Candy for capturing and hatching Pokemon until June 25. Eggs will also hatch at half of their normal distance until then, and you're guaranteed to earn one Rare Candy per Raid.

　　On top of those bonuses, Niantic is bringing one of the three Legendary dogs, Raikou, back for a special Raid day. The Legendary Electric-type will return to Raid Battles on Saturday, June 29, from 4-7 PM local time. During the event, you'll be able to receive up to five free Raid Passes from Gyms, and you may even encounter a Shiny Raikou.

　　In other news, Niantic's Harry Potter mobile game, Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, is now live in the US and UK. The title was slated to launch on June 21, but has arrived in both regions a day early. While its premise is very similar to Pokemon Go's, Wizards Unite also differs in a few notable ways. You can read more about the game in our hands-on impressions of Harry Potter: Wizards Unite.
