Features

Evolve Zweilous (Deino’s Evolution) from the beginning of the event until May 16, 2026, at 9:00 p.m. local time to get a Hydreigon that knows the Charged Attack Brutal Swing.

Brutal Swing (Dark-type)

  • Trainer Battles: 55 power
  • Gyms and raids: 65 power

Lure Module Bonus

On May 16, 2026, from 2:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. local time, Deino will have a very high chance of appearing at PokeStops with active regular Lure Modules. Deino attracted to regular Lure Modules will still have an increased chance to be Shiny and may have a Special Background. That means more chances to encounter the featured Pokemon even after the event hours!

Spawns

Deino will appear more frequently in the wild.

Deino in the wild may also have a Special Background.
