Pokémon GO players are in the middle of a week built around the game’s “Memories in Motion” season, with raid rotations and a Saturday return for Gigantamax battles. (pokemongohub.net) The current weekly schedule runs from Monday, April 20, at 12 a.m. local time through Sunday, April 26, at 11 p.m. local time, according to Pokémon GO Hub’s event roundup. The biggest one-day event is “Replay: GO Bigger” on Saturday, April 25, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time. (pokemongohub.net) That Saturday event brings back Gigantamax Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, and Gengar in G-Max battles at Power Spots. During the rest of the week, Dynamax Regirock is the featured Max Battle boss, with a Monday spotlight from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time. (pokemongohub.net) “Memories in Motion” is the current Pokémon GO season, running from March 3 to June 2, 2026, and it changed how the game spaces out events. Niantic says weekend events now move to Saturdays, paid tickets are being replaced by event GO Passes, and an in-game event calendar is planned for later in the season. (pokemongo.com) The season also added a fixed weekly rhythm called Daily Discoveries. Mondays now emphasize Max Battles and extra Power Spots, Wednesdays keep Raid Hour from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time, Thursdays raise the GO Battle League cap from five sets to 10, and Fridays add in-person trade bonuses including up to two Special Trades. (pokemongo.com) This week’s raid pool also turned over on Wednesday, April 22. Tapu Koko replaced Groudon in five-star raids, Mega Sharpedo replaced Mega Alakazam in Mega Raids, and Tapu Koko was the featured Raid Hour boss on April 22 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time. (pokemongohub.net) The broader April schedule put Sustainability Week just before this stretch, from April 14 to April 20, with Silicobra’s debut listed as one of the month’s headline additions. Pokémon GO Hub’s April calendar also lists Max Battle Day on April 25 between late-April events “Sustainability Week” and “Steeled Resolve.” (pokemongohub.net) For players opening the app this week, the pattern is simple: weekday rotations for raids and Max Battles, then a three-hour Gigantamax window on Saturday afternoon. The season’s new schedule is built to make those local-time check-ins more predictable. (pokemongo.com)
