Everything else you need to know about the Ultra Unlock 2021 Space event in Poké mon Go When it comes to the Ultra Unlock 2021: Space event in Pokémon Go, the obvious draw is which Pokémon will be available in raids. Not only do they see the return of the legendary Palkia, but two regionally exclusive will be available in raids worldwide. You can battle both Kangaskhan - usually exclusive to Australasia - and Heracross - exclusive to South America, southern Florida and Texas - in three-star raids. Since these Pokémon are usually tied to their specific regions, this is the perfect opportunity to add two rare Pokémon to your Pokédex. (I know I'm catching myself a Heracross!) Palkia and Heracross are also having their shiny forms released during this event! Watch on YouTube Raiding and catching Heracross in Pokémon Go In one-star raids you'll be able to battle Pokémon like Unown U, Elgyem and Espurr. It's also important to note that all of these Pokémon will be available in raids until Friday, 20th August at 10am (local time).
