Mega Mewtwo X & Y are similar but distinct versions of everyone's favourite Legendary Pokémon. You'll need to gather special Mega energy to make use of them, available for the first time as part of the upcoming Mega Mewtwo Super Mega Raids arriving as part of Pokémon Go Fest.
That's Mega!
These new versions of Mewtwo aren't the only exciting additions being made as part of Pokémon Go Fest 2026. Faster Mega Level Progression will allow you to expend mega energy without waiting for the usual cooldown to expire, letting you level your mega Pokémon even faster.
That's on top of the usual bevvy of in-game events, including an exclusive Mega Mewtwo Raids for ticket-holders in this Pokémon Go event. So keep your eyes peeled in the coming months for the launch of Pokémon Go Fest 2026, and the arrival of Mega Mewtwo X & Y, in a region near you!
