Mega Evolved pokmon can usually only be used in co-op Raids, and have never before made their way to competitive PvP battles. Their inclusion is bound to shake up Pokmon Gos metagame and throw some popular strategies off-kilter,
but youll only have to deal with those changes for a single day.

Niantic overhauled Pokmon Gos Mega Evolutions system only last month. Youre now able to Mega Evolve your pokmon for a one-time cost, rather than having
to spend energy every time you want to boost the strength of your fully-evolved pocket monsters. They can gain experience, too, advancing to
new Mega Levels each time you pump them full of extra energy.

The changes were intended to solve many of the frustrations that players had been facing for years. The new system makes the rewards of Mega Evolutions more worthwhile, and prevents players from having to slog through tedious raids.

Alongside announcing the PvP event, Niantic revealed the dates of this
seasons community days in a separate blog post . The next three months community events will take place on: Saturday, June 25 Sunday, July 17 Saturday, August 13

We can expect more details about their bonuses and promo content in the
coming weeks.

Go Battle Day: Stardust Surprise will launch on May 29 and run from 12am to 11:59pm local time. Do you know how to catch Ditto in Pokmon Go
