From Gimmighoul to Meltan, Pokémon Go has an odd theme rolling for its next season of content. Season 10: Rising Heroes is now underway, and with it comes some loosely heroic content updates that Niantic will add throughout its runtime.

Whether you want to run around and thwart Team Go Rocket’s evil schemes or simply keep catching some cool Pokémon, this season will enable you to do so with new events, research, and Pokémon. This includes Gimmighoul (Roaming Form) finally being available to capture and Hawlucha making its Pokémon Go debut—though both have special conditions for encountering them.

As always, Rising Heroes will follow Pokémon Go’s three-month scheme for seasonal content. So if you want to make the most of everything this season has to offer, here is everything that is included within it, along with a full content schedule that will be updated as Niantic shares more information.

Pokémon Go Season 10: Rising Heroes start and end time

Niantic doesn’t usually give out all of the information regarding a season of content right away. Most information is held back for smaller reveals throughout the three-month run-time, with a heaping pile of details dropping at the start of each month to give players some idea of what to look forward to. 

For Rising Heroes, Niantic has shared a timeline for most upcoming content that will be featured throughout March, including a list of events, raids, and more. This is not a full list, as more events and reveals will be spaced throughout the month and into April.
