Niantic may be busy with its new title Harry Potter Wizards Unite, but they are not missing out on regular updates and events for Pokemon Go. Today, Pokemon Go Twitter handle has announced a new event featuring Armored Mewtwo.
The powerful Psychic-type Pokémon who also played a major role in the Detective Pikachu movie, is getting his solo movie this year called Mewtwo Strikes Back: Evolution. The film is scheduled for release in July, so it is an in-game promotional event for the upcoming movie.
Armored Mewtwo Raid Event will start on July 10 at 1:00 p.m. PDT and will stay live until July 31st at 1:00 p.m. PDT. The event has brought in a new armoured form for Mewtwo. Armored Mewtwo is Tier 5 Raid Boss.
Speaking of Armored Mewtwo, it is similar to normal Mewtwo as it bears same stats and moves. Raid Boss CP for Armored Mewtwo is lower than Mewtwo standard form. Armored Mewtwo Raid Boss CP is 49430 which we had earlier seen during Mewtwo Ex-Raid.
