Pokémon Go fans chasing Galar birds will soon get to pay for a guaranteed encounter


Three of Pokémon Go's most highly sought-after creatures will become available via a paid-for encounter in a forthcoming event.

Players assume that the chance of seeing those is just 1/20 - the game's standard Legendary Shiny rate - on top of the odds of actually finding one in the first place. If you're keen, you'll be able to purchase the Fleeting Legends Ticket next week, from 23rd to 29th June, timed with the upcoming Ancients Discovered event. Ancients Discovered will see the return of the Regi Legendary family to raids, including Special Backgrounds for the first time.
