Pokémon GO didn't launch with raids as a feature, but over the past few years the cooperative battle mechanic has become an increasingly big part of the game. Entire events are built around these battles, and most of the best characters are available through them. But if you're not paying close attention, it can be hard to remember which Pokémon are available in raids at any given time. To help you out, here's the full Pokémon GO raid schedule for February 2021.
Pokémon GO Raid Schedule – February 2021
This month sees a ton of shake-up in the Raid schedule, mostly due to events centering around the upcoming Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto Celebration. Different regions are featured with their own events leading up to them, with Johto ending shortly before the start of the month. Throughout the month, however, there will be many changes.
Below, we've broken down the Pokémon that are taking part in one-time raids, separated by date and level. Often these are not known from the start, so we will make sure to update them and fill in the gaps. As of the start of the month, we only have an idea of what's to come for Five Star Legendary Raids and Mega Raids, so those are listed below with more to be added as they come. the month develops.
Note: All Raids change at 10am local time unless otherwise stated
Five Star Raids
- Raikou – January 31 to February 6
- Suicune – February 4 to February 9
- Latias and Latios – February 9 to February 20 at 9 a.m.
- Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres and Mewtwo – February 20 at 9am to March 1 at 8am
Mega Raids
- Mega Venusaur, Mega Ampharos and Mega Houndoom – January 19 to February 9
- Mega Pidgeot, Mega Ampharos and TBA – February 9 to February 20
- Mega Venusaur, Mega Charizard X, Mega Charizard Y, and Mega Blastoise – February 20 to March 1
These should all appear randomly at Gyms near you for the specified duration. There are also Raid Times every Tuesday at 18pm local time where all nearby Gyms should spawn with a specified Pokemon or a mix of all available Five Star and/or Mega Raids. If you need to catch some, be sure to check in during these events and watch our raid guides for each of the big bosses.
