Pokémon GO Legendary And Mega Raid Boss Schedule (October 2022)

Month one of the Season of Light is over in Pokémon GO and that means a whole new content drop is on the way. Along with the addition of Fashion Week, Niantic has announced the upcoming Raid Boss schedule for October 2022 among other details.

Along with the Five-Star Raid Boss schedule for October, some of the upcoming Mega Raid Bosses have also been outlined for each week or event. There are plenty of Raid rotations coming to Pokémon GO and our guide will go over everything you need to know for the next month.

Pokémon GO - October Legendary and Mega Raid Bosses

There are a lot of factors that determine which Pokémon appear in Raids when a new month begins. Most of them are tied to special events, but others are added in because they haven't had any attention for a long time. Both are true for the month of October.

• Pokémon GO Fashion Week - Field Research Tasks & Rewards
• Pokémon GO Fashion Week - Dates, Featured Pokémon, More
• Pokémon Go Yveltal - Best Moveset, Counters, & Weaknesses
• Can Minccino Be Shiny In Spotlight Hour For Pokémon GO?
