Pokemon Go has announced plans to add Moltres and Zapdos later this summer. Both Legendary Pokemon will be available for one week windows beginning next week. As we reported yesterday, Pokemon Go will make each Legendary Bird available for a limited amount of time. Articuno will only be available until July 31, before it's replaced by a different Legendary bird. Unfortunately, we don't know whether Pokemon Go plans to continue cycling the Legendary Birds one at a time, or if these week long windows will be the only chance players have for catching the Pokemon. Niantic gave no end date for Lugia's presence in Pokemon Go, so we're guessing that Lugia is either a permanent addition or will at least be around for a while longer than the other birds.

Moltres Moltres is the next Legendary Pokemon to be added to the game. Moltres will replace Articuno on July 31 and will remain in the game until August 7. Moltres is the team mascot for Team Valor, the game's second largest team, so it makes sense that it would follow Articuno into the game. Moltres is a Fire/Flying type, which means it has a double weakness to Rock-Type attacks. While Golem hasn't been super effective against Lugia or Articuno, it should have a much easier time against Moltres. Water-Type Pokemon are also effective against Moltres, so you should have lots of choices to fill out your raid team. prevnext
