Pokemon is having a huge week. A press conference yesterday showcased a ton of exciting announcements, including a new GO+ and a sleepy Snorlax Pokemon GO event. With all that hype swirling around the franchise, there's no better time to head out and tackle some new Battle Raid bosses with a group of friends.

Pokemon GO's latest Battle Raid rotation brings Cresselia back to the level 5 spot (check out our Cresselia counters guide), but that isn't the only exciting change. There are a few other tweaks to the current boss rotation that should help spark some interest in even the lowest tier of Pokemon GO Battle Raid eggs.

Be sure to note that there are three level 5 Raid Bosses listed, but they each are only available for a certain span of time. Cresselia is currently in rotation and that one will disappear once Kyogre rotates in on June 18...
