Armored Mewtwo is coming back in Pokemon GO. Along with the mythical Pokemon, trainers might be able to encounter other clone species that were featured in the Pokemon Day 2020 celebration event.

After a long time, trainers were finally be able to raid for Armored Mewtwo and get their hands on the special mythical Pokemon during the Pokemon GO Fest 2026: Mega Finale event.

Despite waiting for almost 6 years for its return, the shiny version of the special Pokemon was not available during the annual event this year.

As we head into the new season in Pokemon GO, Scopely might be planning a proper comeback of ‘clone’ psychic-type legendary Pokemon.

On 4th November 2026, @thepokemodgroup took to their official X to share that a Clone Special Raid Day might be on the table. As per the announcement, the expected Armored Mewtwo raid day date is 19th December 2026.

Though nothing has been confirmed by Scopely or Pokemon GO, players are certainly excited for the special return, especially as the title ‘Clone Special Raid Day’ suggests there’s more to it this time than just Armored Mewtwo.

What Else to Expect from Clone Special Raid Day Featuring Armored Mewtwo?

As mentioned, data miners have revealed that on Saturday 19th December, we might see the arrival of Armored Mewtwo with a raid day.

Based on the ‘Clone Special Raid Day’ title, it’s likely that we get to see the return of clone Kanto Starters and Pikachu. However, none of these are confirmed officially by Pokemon GO.

If all these predictions hit the mark, trainers who missed out on the Pokemon Day 2020 celebration event can finally experience the thrill of catching their favorite Kanto starters in their exclusive looks.

Last Word on Armored Mewtwo Raid Day

As of now, no leaks from reliable sources suggest that the shiny versions of these Pokemon will be available on its return. However, during the Pokemon Day 2020 celebration event, none of the Kanto Starters were available in their shiny forms. Clone Pikachu and Armored Mewtwo shinies weren’t available as well

However, since Armored Mewtwo already made its return a few months ago this year, we can expect Scopely to release its shiny form this year. Then again, until the official announcement, it’s best to take these with a grain of salt.
