Mega Latios and Mega Latias release has been hinted on official Pokémon GO Germany and Pokémon GO Spain Youtube accounts! Not much is known at the moment, but the video transcript says the following:
Mega Latias and Mega Latios are coming to Pokémon GO, and Pokémon Air Adventures will fly you mega close to the action. Soaring into Pokémon GO from May 3rd to May 10.
The following videos were uploaded and released roughly an hour ago on the two aforementioned channels:
Pokémon GO Spain
Pokémon GO Germany
We expect more event details soon, as this looks to be either a mishap on the regional channels, or an intentional early promo effort. We’ll let you know when we have more information to share.

Pokémon GO’s recent Mega update
Pokémon GO received an update to the Mega Pokémon system recently, with the global launch of the update taking place yesterday.
We recommend that our readers go through the Complete Guide to the Updated Mega Evolution System article for detailed information on the update.
Here are some key highlights:
- Most Mega Raids will now be easier, with some being soloable
- Mega evolving your Pokémon gains points towards your Mega Mastery level with that Pokémon
- Pokémon can Mega evolve for free, but the Mega evolution process invokes a cooldown for that Pokémon
- Mega Energy can be used to reduce the Mega evolution cooldown
- Higher Mega Mastery level leads to shorter Mega evolution cooldown
- Higher Mega Mastery level grants increased bonuses with each level while the Pokémon is Mega Evolved
- Trainers can Mega evolve from the Raid and Battle preparation screens
In addition to the updated Mega evolution system, Trainers will be able to encounter Mega Kangaskhan this weekend, during the A Mega Moment event:
