A new season is arriving in Pokemon GO and some of the most exciting features are going to come from top tier Battle Raids. The Season of Legends, as the name implies, is putting a focus on the Legendary aspect of PoGO gameplay and that means rolling out some exciting Legendary and Mega Raids to get players out and battling in the mobile AR game.
Throughout March 2021 there are going to be some very exciting opportunities to encounter new Legendary forms by completing Battle Raids. While February 2021 was really a throwback Legendary month that focused on the earliest generation of Legendaries, March is heading in the other direction and bringing Landorus and Thundurus into the Pokemon GO spotlight.

That's just the start of the excitement though. March 2021 is also bringing some Mega Raid changes to the schedule, including the chance to throwdown against Mega Houndoom, Mega Abomasnow, and a surprise Mega-Evolved Pokémon. The surprise Mega bosses seem to be becoming a bit a recurring monthly theme, so it will be exciting to watch the predictions roll in and see who the new boss actually ends up being when mid-March arrives...
The following Legendary Pokémon will be appearing in five-star raids throughout March.
