Lugia has been around and in and out of the raid rotation for years now, but this time the Legendary is back with the Aeroblast attack. That could have some interesting impacts on the metagame, so don’t be surprised if the old boss draws a bigger crowd than usual. Beyond that, Uxie (Asia-Pacific), Mesprit (Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and India), or Azelf (the Americas and Greenland) are likely going to get a lot of attention thanks to the fact that there is a chance they will be shiny.
