Mewtwo is coming to 'Pokemon Go'.
Pokemon Go
The legendary character is heading to the game after the humanoid creature was recently captured at the Pokemon Go Stadium event in Yokohama, Japan, and he will turn up through an Exclusive Raid Battles feature.
A post on the 'Pokemon Go' website explained: "Exclusive Raid Battles are similar to existing Raid Battles, with a few notable differences.
"Exclusive raids will periodically appear at Gyms around the world; however, unlike existing raids, Trainers will be invited to join an Exclusive Raid Battle.
"To receive an invitation to participate in an Exclusive Raid Battle, Trainers must have successfully completed a raid recently, by defeating the Raid Boss, at the Gym where the Exclusive Raid Battle will be taking place.
"The invitations will include advance warning of when the Exclusive Raid will take place, giving them ample time to coordinate with other Trainers before taking on the powerful Raid Boss. (sic)"
Niantic have encouraged players to ensure their Pokemons are fully prepared for Mewtwo's arrival by battling in raids at their local gyms.
What's more, gamers are being given another chance to catch Legendary Pokemons Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, and Lugia from August 14 to August 31 in local Raid Battles.
