Next week, Niantic decided to host a new special event in Pokemon Go, one they called The Legendary Lunch Hour. The company hopes that would be only the first of a series of events that the fans would love to play.
More specifically, Pokemon Go’s The Legendary Lunch Hour would start on Wednesday, March 13th, and would run between 12 PM and 1 PM local time. That means, regardless of where you live, The Legendary Lunch Hour would take place between the same hours. The whole idea behind the event, as the name suggests, is to offer the players a chance to participate in special Raid Battles during their lunch break.
Niantic itself admits that this new Pokemon Go special event is only experimental, and the fans are free to offer their feedback on The Legendary Lunch Hour mode. If Pokemon Go players enjoy it, Niantic will run this event weekly.
The Legendary Hour is the brand new Pokemon Go special event
“To give you more ways to enjoy Pokémon GO, we’re trying out a new event called Legendary Lunch Hour! From 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. in your local time zone, there will be an increased number of raids to test your battle skills alongside your friends, coworkers, and classmates. The first Legendary Lunch Hour will take place on March 13, and with your help, we hope to make this an event you can enjoy every week,” is how Niantic describes this new special even in Pokemon Go.
As mentioned above, The Legendary launch Hour would come with increased chances for Raid Battles. Also, the players have the opportunity to team up with classmates or colleagues to participate in Raid Battles during the lunch break, between 12 PM and 1 PM on Wednesday, next week.
However, this new Pokemon Go special event won’t be the only one next week. Niantic will also bring back the Gen 3 Legendary Rayquaza for the Raid Weekend event from March 15th to March 18th.
