Niantic is adding both Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre to the game, but when exactly will the powerhouses enter the fray? Unlike other new mechanics or forms, there are only two Primal Pok\u00e9mon currently available in any Pok\u00e9mon game\u2014depending on how you classify certain species. This means Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre will be the start and finish for Pok\u00e9mon Go\u2019s implementation of the Primal Reversion.\u00a0 This is all part of a focus on Pok\u00e9mon from Hoenn to kick off 2023, and you can expect more of it too. Luckily though, Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre are part of this second wave of this Gen III content you won\u2019t have to wait long for.\u00a0 When will Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre be available in Pok\u00e9mon Go?\u00a0 There will be two separate rollout periods for Primal Groudon and Kyogre in Pok\u00e9mon Go. Both will center around the upcoming Go Tour: Hoenn events. Starting on Feb. 18 and 19 at the Go Tour: Hoenn \u2013 Las Vegas in-person event, players will be able to battle Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre in new Primal Raids. Additionally, this will also introduce Primal Energy to the game, which can be earned by completing those Primal Raids or specific research tasks. This is necessary for using Primal Reversion with your own Groudon or Kyogre\u2014similar to how Mega Energy is used for Mega Evolution. Related: How to do a Primal Reversion in Pok\u00e9mon Go Around a week later, on Feb, 25 and 26, Primal Raids and Primal Energy will be widely introduced to Pok\u00e9mon Go as part of the Go Tour: Hoenn global event. This will bring some of the in-person content to players around the world, though not all of it.\u00a0 From that point on, Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre will be fully available in Pok\u00e9mon Go. Just be prepared because Primal Energy likely won\u2019t be abundant after Go Tour: Hoenn ends, so stock up while you can.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/18130053\/image-5-1.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/779057"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1706"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=779057"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/779057\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":802375,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/779057\/revisions\/802375"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/778446"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=779057"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=779057"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=779057"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=779057"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=779057"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=779057"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=779057"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

Both will center around the upcoming Go Tour: Hoenn events. Starting on Feb. 18 and 19 at the Go Tour: Hoenn \u2013 Las Vegas in-person event, players will be able to battle Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre in new Primal Raids. Additionally, this will also introduce Primal Energy to the game, which can be earned by completing those Primal Raids or specific research tasks. This is necessary for using Primal Reversion with your own Groudon or Kyogre\u2014similar to how Mega Energy is used for Mega Evolution. Related: How to do a Primal Reversion in Pok\u00e9mon Go Around a week later, on Feb, 25 and 26, Primal Raids and Primal Energy will be widely introduced to Pok\u00e9mon Go as part of the Go Tour: Hoenn global event. This will bring some of the in-person content to players around the world, though not all of it.\u00a0 From that point on, Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre will be fully available in Pok\u00e9mon Go.
