Trainers, an official announcement from Niantic has just been made public regarding yesterday’s raid hour.
In some regions around the world, there seemed to be a mix-up regarding the wrong Pokémon appearing instead of Zamazenta. Mega Pidgeot seemed to steal the spotlight in yesterday’s Raid Hour. Only Zamazenta was meant to be appearing during that hour.
To compensate, Niantic will be hosting a make-up Raid Hour for those affected areas along with providing Trainers with a free Remote Raid Pass.
*DISCLAIMER*
Only those regions which were affected by this mix-up will gain access to this make-up Raid Hour.
From the Official Announcement:
“Trainers, we apologize for the recent Raid Hour mix-up with Mega Pidgeot and Zamazenta in some time zones.”
If you were affected by this mixup, be sure to take advantage of this bonus event to rack in Zamazenta (XL) candy along with testing your luck with IV’s. Move along Pidgeot, we get it that you’re excited that you can be used again in GO Battle League, but this is Zamazenta’s hour!
