## Summary

Pokémon Go is hosting "Go Fest 2026: Mega Finale" on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 September, running 10am to 6pm local time on both days, marking the end of the game's summer event season. The finale's headline draw is the return of Armored Mewtwo, which has not appeared since 2020, available in five-star raids throughout both days, giving players a chance to catch it or gather extra Mega Energy after a long absence.

The event is lighter on bonuses than the main Go Fest but still offers rotating type-based "habitats," each lasting an hour and repeating twice per day, bringing different wild Pokémon and raid bosses. Most bonuses require the Go Pass, introduced earlier in the week during the "Mega Ascension" event and unlocked via a short Timed Research task involving a choice between Mega Chesnaught, Mega Delphox or Mega Greninja, though two bonuses are free for all players. Mega Mewtwo X features in Super Mega Raids all Saturday, while Mega Mewtwo Y takes over on Sunday, alongside a wide range of other Mega Evolutions and habitat-specific wild spawns.
