No further info was shared, but Team Rocket left behind a little memo saying theyā€™ll need at least 1 million people and Saga Prefecture only has about 820,000 so that it wonā€™t be enough. IT also says something about a flashy entrance from the night skies, a balloon festa that will succeed, several possible locations, ā€œSaga x Boss = ?ā€ and something about catching all the customersā€™ PokĆ©mon.

 

Weā€™re not entirely sure whatā€™s going to happen, but weā€™ll definitely keep an eye out. In the meantime, those of you in Saga should make sure to keep your PokĆ©mon close!
