Pokémon GO’s “Memories in Motion” week is live through Sunday, April 26, with local-time events built around raids, Max Battles and a Saturday Gigantamax replay. (pokemongohub.net) The weekly schedule runs from Monday, April 20, 2026, at 12:00 a.m. to Sunday, April 26, 2026, at 11:00 p.m. local time. Pokémon GO Hub lists Dynamax Regirock on Monday, Tapu Koko Raid Hour on Wednesday, and a three-hour “GO Bigger” replay on Saturday, April 25, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time. (pokemongohub.net) That Saturday window brings back Gigantamax Venusaur, Gigantamax Charizard, Gigantamax Blastoise and Gigantamax Gengar. During the same April 22 to April 28 rotation, Tapu Koko is the five-star raid boss and Mega Sharpedo is the Mega Raid boss. (pokemongohub.net) Max Battles are Pokémon GO’s large-group battles tied to Power Spots, and the game’s own season schedule says Mondays now feature extra Power Spots and more frequent refreshes. The “Memories in Motion” season also sets Max Battles on Mondays from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. local time. (pokemongohub.net) Niantic has spent the past several years pushing players back toward in-person play. In a May 2022 update, the company said it was adding local-raid bonuses and new social tools to help players “discover new communities” and “enjoy local raid battles.” (pokemongolive.com) This week’s event lands inside the broader “Memories in Motion” season, which runs from March 3 to June 2, 2026. That season shifted Pokémon GO toward a more regular event calendar, moved weekend events to Saturdays, and added day-by-day features like Raid Hour on Wednesdays and Max Monday rotations. (pokemongohub.net) April’s larger calendar shows how tightly this week fits into the month’s cadence. Sustainability Week ran April 14 to April 20, Max Battle Day is set for April 25, and Shadow Latios remains in weekend Shadow Raids through early May. (pokemongohub.net) For players organizing local groups, the practical deadline is Sunday night: the current weekly rotation ends at 11:00 p.m. local time on April 26, and the Gigantamax replay ends much earlier, at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday.
