While there is certainly a lot more to be revealed in the coming months, Niantic teased Trainers by stating: “you’re able to also look forward to a series of events toward the end of the Season that will certainly be Legendary.”

While Therian Formes for the Forces of Nature trio are tantalizing enough, it appears that Pokemon Go Trainers can look forward to encountering many Legendary ‘mon throughout the three-month period.
