Pokémon GO’s week of April 20–26 centers on Tapu Koko raids, Dynamax Regirock battles, and a Saturday return for Gigantamax fights. (pokemongohub.net) The weekly schedule runs from Monday, April 20, at 12 a.m. local time through Sunday, April 26, at 11 p.m. local time. On Monday from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m., Dynamax Regirock headlines Max Monday and stays in Max Battles through April 26. (pokemongohub.net) Wednesday’s Raid Hour runs from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time with Tapu Koko in five-star raids. Tapu Koko also replaces Groudon in the standard five-star raid pool from April 22 to April 28, while Mega Sharpedo replaces Mega Alakazam in Mega Raids over the same dates. (pokemongohub.net) Saturday, April 25, brings the replay of the GO Bigger event from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time. Gigantamax Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, and Gengar all return during that three-hour window. (pokemongohub.net) This week lands inside the Memories in Motion season, which runs from March 3 to June 2, 2026. That season shifted Pokémon GO toward a fixed weekly rhythm with Max Monday, Raid Hour on Wednesday, and expanded GO Battle League play on Thursday. (pokemongohub.net) Niantic also moved weekend events to Saturdays in this season and said event tickets would give way to GO Pass systems. The same season added daily bonuses such as 2× GO Points from Pass Tasks on Mondays and up to 10 GO Battle League sets on Thursdays, for 50 battles total. (pokemongohub.net) April’s broader calendar helps explain the handoff this week. Sustainability Week ran April 14–20, Max Battle Day is set for April 25, and the next major event after this stretch is Steeled Resolve from April 28 to May 4. (pokemongohub.net) The monthly raid rotation has been moving on a one-week cadence in April: Regidrago on April 1–7, Kyogre on April 8–14, Groudon on April 15–21, and Tapu Koko on April 22–28. Mega Raids have followed the same pattern, ending this week with Mega Sharpedo before Mega Banette arrives on April 29. (pokemongohub.net) One weekly feature is missing. Pokémon GO Hub’s April schedule says the usual Tuesday Spotlight Hour is “currently cancelled,” leaving Monday’s Max Monday and Wednesday’s Raid Hour as the main recurring meetup windows this week. (pokemongohub.net) For trainers planning the weekend, the clearest checkpoint is Saturday afternoon: the Gigantamax replay starts at 2 p.m. local time, and this week’s Tapu Koko and Regirock rotations stay live through Sunday night.
