Niantic announced today that Azelf, Mesprit, and Uxie can be challenged in Raids.
The mons will be able to be challenged in raids from May 2 until May 27. Uxie can be challenged in the Asia-Pacific area. Mesprit can be challenged in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and India. Azelf is in the Americas and Greenland.
According to a tweet from Pokémon GO’s Twitter page, Azelf, Mesprit, and Uxie are spawning in the wild.
Hmm. We’ve been hearing reports of unidentified Pokémon. 🤔 As Professor Willow looks into these reports, please let us know if you spot anything out of the ordinary in #PokemonGO. pic.twitter.com/S08Fnq5u0Q

If you have friends overseas, hope and pray that they catch two, so they’ll trade you one.
They are also very rare and have a high-catch rate, so break out those Golden Razz Berries. There is some evidence that came from Reddit suggesting that they are more likely to spawn near bodies of water.
Along with the Lake Trio, Shellos made its debut in Pokémon GO. However, it was only available in a 10-minute window. It is unclear whether or not this was intentional from Niantic. The lovable snail was available in both his pink and blue forms. Ground-type mons have also been appearing in greater numbers. Even Groudon has made its way back, appearing in raids.
