Pokémon GO’s April 20–26 event slate is live now, with the “Memories in Motion” season week running through Sunday, April 26, in local time. (pokemongohub.net) The week started Monday, April 20, at 12 a.m. local time and ends Sunday, April 26, at 11 p.m. local time. The biggest scheduled return this weekend is the Replay: GO Bigger event on Saturday, April 25, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time. (pokemongohub.net) That Saturday window brings back Gigantamax Venusaur, Gigantamax Charizard, Gigantamax Blastoise, and Gigantamax Gengar in G-Max battles. Earlier in the week, Dynamax Regirock is the featured Max Battle boss for April 20–26, with extra focus during Max Monday. (pokemongohub.net; pokemongohub.net) The raid rotation also changed on Wednesday, April 22. Tapu Koko moved into five-star raids for April 22–28, and Mega Sharpedo moved into Mega Raids for the same dates. (pokemongohub.net; pokemongohub.net) This week sits inside Pokémon GO’s broader “Memories in Motion” season, which runs from March 3 to June 2, 2026. That season changed the event cadence by shifting weekend events to Saturdays, adding GO Passes in place of more paid tickets, and building more of the schedule around daily and weekly recurring features. (pokemongohub.net) For players trying to fit sessions into a workweek, the recurring windows are simple: Max Monday runs Mondays, Raid Hour runs Wednesdays from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time, and the current April guide says the usual Tuesday Spotlight Hour is canceled outside special event blocks. (pokemongohub.net; pokemongohub.net) In Sugar Land, that means the event is playable anywhere the game normally spawns PokéStops, Gyms, and Power Spots, including park loops and neighborhood clusters. Pokémon GO’s map and encounter visuals are built around a player’s real-world location, so the same global schedule plays out on local streets and park paths. (pokemongolive.com; pokemongohub.net) The week also follows the close of Sustainability Week 2026, which ran April 14–20 and introduced Silicobra to the game while adding Galarian Corsola wearing sunglasses and Shiny Toedscool. Players logging in now are effectively moving from that event’s wrap-up into the season’s regular weekly cycle and Saturday battle event. (pokemongohub.net) The clock on this one is short: the weekly event slate ends Sunday night, and the Gigantamax replay is confined to a three-hour block on Saturday afternoon. (pokemongohub.net)
