Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem are coming to Pokemon GO
Three Legendary Pokemon that originated from Pokemon Black/White will soon be appearing on Pokemon GO. Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem will all be appearing in five-star raids, Niantic has announced.
Reshiram will be first up on between May 26 and June 16 at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET. Zekrom and Kyurem will follow later, with their specific dates to be confirmed later.
Below are the full event details:
Three draconic roars can be heard in the distance. One belongs to a Pokémon that’s capable of scorching the world when people turn their backs on the truth. Another belongs to a Pokémon that can raze entire kingdoms with its electricity if ideals are not revered. The final roar belongs to a Pokémon within which dwells an even greater power bound by extreme cold.
Originally discovered in the Unova region and first met by Trainers in Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version, Legendary Pokémon Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem will soon be making their Pokémon GO debut in five-star raids!
