Niantic revealed today that Pokémon Go players will finally be able to capture Legendary Pokémon. They can do this by teaming up in group Raid battles where they all fight against one of the powerful creatures together. If they win, they get the Pokémon.
This is a feature that Niantic has been teasing since before Pokémon Go’s release. The addition could help bring players back to the game (and encourage them to spend more money) while keeping its current fanbase engaged. The first Legendary Raid will happen in Grant Park in Chicago during Niantic’s Pokémon Go Fest. If trainers there win, the Raid will become available around the world.
