Mega Mewtwo X and Mega Mewtwo Y stand as the crowning raid encounters throughout today's Pokémon GO Fest: Mega Finale. The simultaneous availability of both sixth-generation Mega Evolutions elevates Sunday's event far beyond a standard weekend raid rotation, anchoring the entire finale directly to the summer's overarching Mega Evolution storyline.
Mega Mewtwo X introduces a devastating Psychic/Fighting typing capable of dealing massive damage in Gym and Raid environments, while Mega Mewtwo Y pushes pure Psychic attack power to astronomical heights. Defeating these high-difficulty raid bosses awards trainers valuable Mega Energy necessary to trigger the transformations on their existing Mewtwo specimens.
Because gym encounters operate according to local time zones, Niantic recommends that trainers verify their local in-game raid radar rather than assuming specific bosses will remain continuously spawned. Raid eggs will hatch frequently across community gyms between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM local time.
