Mega Lucario finally makes its Pokémon GO debut in the third Ultra Unlock event. The Mega Lucario Raid Day takes place onSaturday, July 27 between 11am and 5pm local time. This is three hours longer than usual Raid Days, which gives Trainers plenty of time to get a good IV Lucario and as much Mega Energy as they need.

How do you get Raid Passes in Pokémon GO?

Everything you need to know about Raid Passes in Pokémon GO.

To celebrate the debut of Mega Lucario, any Lucario caught from a Raid will have a special Fast Attack, Force Palm. Any existing Lucario you have will only be able to learn this move through an Elite Fast TM. The move will do 13 power in Trainer Battles, and 9 power in Gyms and raids. This is the first time any Pokémon has been able to learn Force Palm in Pokémon GO.

Mega Lucario Raid Day event ticket

As often is the case for a Pokémon GO Raid Day, there is a Raid Day ticket to grant extra passes and bonuses. The ticket will cost $5, and will have the following bonuses:

These bonuses stack with the event bonuses, and last until 10pm local time. The extra Raid Passes make this ticket good value for money if you plan to do a lot of Raids. 13 Raid Passes for the day should mean you don’t need to spend a lot of Pokécoins on Passes to complete enough Mega Raids.
