  "textContent": "June 2026 packs the raid rotation full of Legendary dragons and Ultra Beasts, with Reshiram, Zekrom, Necrozma, Kartana, and Celesteela all cycling through five-star raids across the month. Mega Raids run a separate lineup, Shadow Dialga takes over weekend Shadow Raids, and a Mega Raid Day lands late in the month. Bosses swap at 10:00 a.m. local time on each changeover date.\n\n⚔️\n\nQuick answer: Reshiram headlines five-star raids from June 3 to June 9, followed by Zekrom (June 10–16), Necrozma (June 17–23), and the regional Ultra Beasts Kartana and Celesteela (June 24–30). Shadow Dialga appears in Shadow Raids every weekend from June 2 to June 30.\n\nImage credit: The Pokemon Company (via YouTube/@pogotrnr)\n\n* * *\n\n### Tier 5 Legendary raid schedule for June 2026\n\nFive-star raid bosses rotate weekly, switching over at 10:00 a.m. local time on each start date. Every boss in this lineup can be encountered in its shiny form. The final week splits by region, so the Ultra Beast you see depends on your hemisphere.\n\nDates| Raid boss| Shiny\n---|---|---\nMay 27 – June 2| Tapu Fini| Yes\nJune 3 – June 9| Reshiram| Yes\nJune 10 – June 16| Zekrom| Yes\nJune 17 – June 23| Necrozma| Yes\nJune 24 – June 30| Kartana (Northern Hemisphere) / Celesteela (Southern Hemisphere)| Yes\n\nKartana and Celesteela are regionally exclusive during that closing week. If you want the one your region doesn't host, a Remote Raid Pass lets you join raids hosted elsewhere.\n\n* * *\n\n### Shadow Dialga in Shadow Raids\n\nShadow Dialga is the headline Shadow Raid boss for the whole month, appearing in five-star Shadow Raids on weekends from June 2 through June 30. It can be shiny. Remote Raid Passes now work for Shadow Raids, so you can take it on without traveling to a Gym, provided you have the passes to spend.\n\n* * *\n\n### Mega Raid schedule for June 2026\n\nMega Raids follow their own weekly rotation, also turning over at 10:00 a.m. local time. Beating a Mega Raid awards Mega Energy and an encounter with the Pokémon's regular form rather than the Mega itself. Each boss listed can be shiny.\n\nDates| Mega boss| Shiny\n---|---|---\nMay 27 – June 2| Mega Medicham| Yes\nJune 3 – June 9| Mega Audino| Yes\nJune 10 – June 16| Mega Lopunny| Yes\nJune 17 – June 23| Mega Scizor| Yes\nJune 24 – June 30| Mega Pidgeot| Yes\nImage credit: The Pokemon Company (via YouTube/@pogotrnr)\n\n* * *\n\n### Raid Hour schedule for June 2026\n\nRaid Hours run every Wednesday evening from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. local time, flooding Gyms with the featured five-star boss. The Raid Hour lineup matches the active weekly Legendary, making these the easiest windows to chain multiple battles back to back.\n\nDate| Featured Pokémon\n---|---\nJune 3| Reshiram\nJune 10| Zekrom\nJune 17| Necrozma\nJune 24| Kartana / Celesteela\n\n* * *\n\n### Max Battles and Power Spot takeovers\n\nDynamax Pokémon rotate weekly in Max Battles and take over Power Spots for an hour each Monday from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. local time. Every Dynamax boss this month can be shiny. Roggenrola stands out because Dynamax Gigalith ranks well in the non-Legendary Max meta, while Electabuzz brings Dynamax Electivire into reach.\n\nDates| Dynamax Pokémon| Shiny\n---|---|---\nJune 1 – June 7| Inkay| Yes\nJune 8 – June 14| Electabuzz| Yes\nJune 15 – June 21| Roggenrola| Yes\nJune 22 – June 28| Hoothoot| Yes\nJune 29 – July 5| Pidove| Yes\nImage credit: The Pokemon Company (via YouTube/@pogotrnr)\n\n* * *\n\n### Mega Raid Day and GO Fest raid debuts\n\nMega Raid Day runs on Saturday, June 27, concentrating Mega Raids for a single-day push. GO Fest 2026 also brings major raid debuts at its in-person stops in Chicago (June 5–7) and Copenhagen (June 12–14), where Mega Mewtwo X, Mega Mewtwo Y, and Zeraora make their first Pokémon Go appearances alongside Shiny Paldean Tauros.\n\n📅\n\nNote: Special event raids can appear alongside the standard rotation during GO Fest and other June activities, so the weekly tables cover the baseline schedule rather than every limited-time boss.\n\nWith dragons in the standard rotation, Shadow Dialga on weekends, and a Mega-focused day to close things out, June rewards trainers who plan around the Wednesday Raid Hours and Monday Power Spot windows. Mark the changeover dates at 10:00 a.m. local time so you never miss the boss you're chasing.",
