A recent leak suggests that developer Niantic might be adding Mega Legendary Raids to Pokémon GO’s special Spring event that featured cute flower crowns for certain Pokémon and this month’s Community Day that marked the debut of the Alolan Pokémon Stufful.

Some of these new Pokémon GO additions have centered around Mega Evolutions, which were first introduced in Pokémon X and Y as a powerful yet temporary new stage for certain Pokémon almost a decade ago. Pokémon GO only introduced Mega Evolutions in 2020, and only 17 different species are available at this time. The method for performing Mega Evolutions in Pokémon GO is different than in other games, as players need to consume a set amount of Mega Energy for their partner Pokémon to reach their Mega stage instead of using a Mega Stone. Recent data leaks have suggested that Niantic could be revamping the leveling system for Mega Evolutions in Pokémon GO, but that might not be the only big change on the way.

2022 has been a busy and eventful year for the Pokémon franchise thus far, as Pokémon Legends: Arceus launched on the Nintendo Switch to considerable praise back in January. Later on, Pokémon fans got their first look at the next generation of mainline Pokémon games with the surprise announcement of Pokémon Scarlet And Violet last month. Meanwhile, Pokémon GO is continuing to host special events for its players, such as last week’s Sustainability Week event that added nature-themed Pokémon Oranguru and Shiny Cherubi to promote ing the environment.

Mega Evolutions have been a relatively recent addition to Pokémon GO, and Niantic is still tweaking and adding to the gameplay surrounding this powerful Pokémon stage - such as bringing in Mega Evolutions for rare and powerful Legendaries. The leaks found in PokeMiners' latest datamine haven't officially been confirmed by Nintendo or Niantic yet, so Pokémon GO players should stay tuned for a more concrete announcement of Legendary Mega Evolution Raids.
