Pokémon GO Hub reports that Pokémon GO’s schedule for July 27 to August 2, 2026, continues the game’s “Forever Forward” season while closing out the 10th Anniversary Ultra Unlock event. The week includes rotating Max Battles, raids, Spotlight Hour and GO Battle League formats, with several time-limited windows running by local time.

Bidoof is scheduled for Spotlight Hour on July 30 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m., with double Candy for transferring Pokémon. Kyurem takes the July 29 Raid Hour slot, also from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m., and enters five-star raids from July 29 to August 4, where Pokémon GO Hub says it can be shiny for the first time. Mega Aggron also joins Mega Raids during that July 29-August 4 period.
