Legendary Raid Hour

Legendary Raid Hour (originally known as Legendary Lunch Hour) is an occasional event that turns every available Gym to a specific Legendary Pokémon Raid Boss during one hour. It usually occurs on Wednesday from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. in local time zone. Unlike Special Raid Challenge, no additional free Raid Passes are given. Eggs start to appear in Gym 20 minutes before the Raid Hour if the Gym is not occupied by other Raid Battles or EX Raid Battles.
