Pokémon Go events are the lifeblood of the game - giving us new things to catch and battle against.
Every week, the headlines are (usually) a Monday or Tuesday event that takes us through the week with new debuts and a unique Go Pass, a Saturday weekend event - usually with a community focus - and a Wednesday raid refresh.
There are also reoccurring events for pretty much each day of the week, too, with Max Monday, and Go Battle League-focused activities each Tuesday and Thursday.
There's a lot to take in, in other words - which is where this guide to events coming up in Pokémon Go can help.
Update (2nd October): Fleshed out the events of the month ahead.
