Kyogre, Groudon, and Cresselia Return to Pokémon GO Raids

Memorial Day will be an interesting day for Pokémon GO raids as Kyogre, Groudon, and Cresselia will all return to the game for players to add to their collection. Niantic isn't making it easy, however, as you'll only have a short period for each to attempt to catch all three, and they will only be around in the game at specific times in the day for each day. We have all three of their details listed here, as you'll be attempting to catch them on May 27th, June 18th, and June 27th. It's also interesting to note that they pushed the second raid until after E3 and Pokémon GO Fest, so at least hardcore players will have a chance and not be distracted at an event. Best of luck to you all!
