Pokemon Go is Testing New Lunch Rush Raids

Niantic is currently testing special lunch time raids for Pokemon Go with possible intent to make the raids a permanent feature. The lunch raids are being tauted as the "Legendary Lunch Hour" to get players out and walking to raid events on their lunch breaks. The raids will go live next week as a test, so if the idea of raiding on your lunch break sounds awesome, be sure to check out the Legendary Lunch Hour so we see the special raids come back in the future.

Niantic posted details for the raid event on the official Pokemon Go blog, including time and date details:

To give you more ways to enjoy Pokémon GO, we're trying out a new event called Legendary Lunch Hour! From 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. in your local time zone, there will be an increased number of raids to test your battle skills alongside your friends, coworkers, and classmates. The first Legendary Lunch Hour will take place on March 13, and with your help, we hope to make this an event you can enjoy every week!

• Mar. 13, 2019, from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. in your local time zone
