For the next few days, trainers in Pokémon Go have the chance to take part in another time-limited event, with this one being themed around Team GO Rocket and Shadow Raids, which from now on will be remotely raidable forever.
On top of the debut of Shiny Dilage, there are a host of research tasks and other things to do before the event ends on May 18, midnight local time, including fighting Team Go Rocket, which will appear more frequently at Pokéstops and in balloons. You can also use Charged TM to help a Shadow Pokémon forget Frustration during this event window, giving it another move with all of the Shadow Pokémon benefits.
Here is a full list of all the new stuff you can look forward to seeing this time around.
