Pokemon GO is set to host an exciting Hoopa Unbound Raid Day on February 15. This announcement builds on the anticipation from the current Pokemon GO season that kicked off in December. Fans have been eagerly waiting to hear about the reappearance of Hoopa Unbound, particularly after its significant mention in the game’s official trailer.
Hoopa, characterized as a Psychic/Ghost-type Pokémon from Generation 6, draws inspiration from the concept of a Djinn or genie. While its Confined form is widely known, Hoopa Unbound represents its true potential, transforming it into a formidable six-armed bipedal Pokémon, amongst the largest in the game. Players first encountered both forms of Hoopa in Pokemon GO in 2021, with Hoopa Unbound making its debut during the Mischief Unbound event.
