Pokémon GO’s “Memories in Motion” week is live through Sunday, April 26, stacking a season event, raid rotations, and a Saturday Gigantamax replay into one stretch. (pokemongohub.net) The in-game week began Monday, April 20, at 12:00 a.m. local time and ends Sunday, April 26, at 11:00 p.m. local time. Pokémon GO Hub’s weekly schedule says this window also includes the end of Sustainability Week and the return of Gigantamax Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, and Gengar on Saturday, April 25, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time. (pokemongohub.net) Wednesday, April 22, brings the week’s Raid Hour from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. local time with Tapu Koko in five-star raids. Mega Sharpedo also entered Mega Raids on April 22 and stays in that pool through April 28, according to the April event schedule. (pokemongohub.net 1) (pokemongohub.net 2) Max Battles are the game’s map-based battles at Power Spots, and this week’s featured Dynamax boss is Regirock. Pokémon GO Hub lists Dynamax Regirock as the Max Monday spotlight from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. on April 20 and says it remains in Max Battles through April 26. (pokemongohub.net 1) (pokemongohub.net 2) This week sits inside the broader “Memories in Motion” season, which runs from March 3 at 10 a.m. to June 2, 2026, at 10 a.m. local time. Niantic says the season shifted Pokémon GO toward a more regular event cadence, moved weekend events to Saturdays, and replaced paid event tickets with GO Passes. (pokemongo.com) The season also added “Daily Discoveries,” a fixed weekly rhythm that changes bonuses by day. Niantic says Mondays now boost GO Pass progress and Power Spot activity, Wednesdays keep Raid Hour, Thursdays raise GO Battle League rewards, and Fridays add in-person trade bonuses. (pokemongo.com) The week also closes out Sustainability Week 2026, which ran from April 14 at 10 a.m. to April 20 at 8 p.m. local time. Pokémon GO Hub says that event introduced Silicobra, added Shiny Toedscool, and brought in Galarian Corsola wearing sunglasses. (pokemongohub.net) For players in Elk Grove, the event is not tied to one official venue; it plays wherever local groups already meet for raids, routes, and Community Day circuits. The game’s timers are local, so the same April 22 Raid Hour and April 25 Gigantamax window apply there on the clock players see in-game. (pokemongohub.net) (pokemongo.com) By Sunday night, this week’s bundle of Tapu Koko raids, Regirock Max Battles, and returning Gigantamax fights gives way to the next April rotation. Pokémon GO Hub’s calendar shows “Steeled Resolve” starting April 28, with Tapu Lele replacing Tapu Koko in five-star raids on April 29. (pokemongohub.net)
