Pokemon Go is bringing another fan-favorite Legendary back for a limited time this weekend. As a reward for completing enough Global Challenges during the recent Pokemon Go Fest event in Yokohama, Japan, Suicune, one of the three Legendary dogs from Pokemon Gold and Silver, is returning to the game for a special Raid Day this Saturday, August 17.Suicune hasn`t appeared in Pokemon Go very often, making this weekend`s Raid Day a good opportunity to add one to your collection if you`ve previously missed it. That`s not the only reason to be excited for the event; you`ll also be able to encounter a Shiny Suicune in Raids. The Legendary will only be around for a brief time, however, so to help you prepare for the event, we`ve rounded up all the most important details about this weekend`s Suicune Raid Day below.What Time Does Suicune Raid Day Start?Much like Pokemon Go`s monthly Community Days, this weekend`s Suicune Raid Day will take place around the world for three hours, from 4-7 PM local time. During that window, the Legendary Pokemon will appear in Gyms as a five-star Raid boss. Once the event ends, Suicune will leave the game again, giving you only a couple of hours to catch it.Shiny SuicuneSuicune will be a common sight in Gyms during Saturday`s event, so you should have no trouble finding a Suicune Raid during the aforementioned hours. Even if you`ve previously captured Suicune, you`ll want to participate in a few Raids, as you may come across a rare Shiny Suicune during the event. This variant sports a blue mane rather than a purple one, making it look even more majestic.However, the odds of finding a Shiny Legendary in Pokemon Go are quite rare, and there`s no definitive way of knowing in advance if a Raid will produce a Shiny Suicune. If you`re hoping to snag a Shiny one this weekend, you`ll need to be persistent and participate in as many Suicune Raids as you can during the event.Pokemon Go: Legendary Rayquaza Guide - Counters, Shiny Rayquaza, And How To C ...
