As you can see, all these Pokemon have one thing in common--they are all Dark-type monsters. Since Yveltal is the featured Pokemon in the event, we can conclude that its major type has striking importance during the seven-day celebration.
If you did not catch some Pokemon during the Luminous Legends X event, you can battle Goomy, Spritzee, and Swirlix so you can obtain them this time.
Niantic also announced that there will be an upcoming Team GO Rocket research which will arrive with other exclusive field research. Upon finishing these challenges, you can catch Scraggy and Galarian Zigzagoon.
Besides the two, you can also get the following Pokemon through hatching a 7-km egg:
Alolan Grimer
Sneasel
Poochyena
Alolan Rattata
Stunky
Alolan Meowth (Raid Boss)
For the most challenging part, you can receive huge rewards only if you win against 25 million Rocket grunts from May 15-23. The usual perks that you can win are XPs. Galarian Zigzagoon (via 1-star Raid boss), and its shiny version.
When is the Pokemon GO' Luminous Legends Y Part 2?
Gamerant noted that the second leg of the event will start on May 25 and will end on May 31. While part 1 has Pancham, the next segment will feature Eevee's fairy evolution, Sylveon.
Besides this intertwining Pokemon, you can also face other Eeveelutions such as Umbreon, Espeon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon through three-star raids.
