Niantic
EX Raid Passes for EX Raids with Mewtwo with the move Shadow Ball have just been released in Pokemon GO, according to Niantic Support.
Niantic previously announced that players can start receiving EX Raid Passes for the EX Raids with Mewtwo starting September 25 at 1:00 p.m. PDT, but it looks like they’re being released now.
You can see a picture of the invite here.
If you and your group beat Mewtwo in the EX Raid, not only will you encounter a Mewtwo with the exclusive move Shadow Ball – which hasn’t been available since Mewtwo was last available in EX Raids back in 2017 – but you also get a chance to encounter a Shiny Mewtwo according to Niantic’s original blog post.
You can get your own EX Raid pass by winning a Raid Battle at a qualifying Gym. You can check if the Gym is eligible to host EX Raids by taking a look at its details page. The pass you get will give you the date and time of the EX Raid. You can invite an Ultra Friend or a Best Friend to join you for the EX Raid.
Also, don’t forget about the special makeup Legendary Raid Hour for Mewtwo with the exclusive move Psystrike on October 8 from 6-7 p.m. local time.
Pokemon GO is also currently hosting the World Tourism Day event, where you can complete exclusive Research Tasks, trade Pokemon with 1/4 less Stardust cost and get twice the XP from spinning PokeStops you never visited before. You can also hatch region-exclusive Pokemon from 5 km Eggs found in their respective real-world locations, which includes the newly added Mime Jr. in 5 km Eggs in Europe. See our previous report for more details.
