The best thing that any "Pokemon Go" player can have is a Legendary Pokemon, but they are so hard to come by and it seems impossible to get one. However, the company decided to make the creatures available in-game.
How to catch these fantastic beasts and where to find them
Niantic revealed that these Legendary Pokemons will appear as Eggs at Pokemon Gyms. The Pokemon, however, will act as a boss for the new Raid system that was introduced. Nevertheless, after the player defeats it, they will have the chance to catch said creature.
With a Legendary Pokemon in the player’s hand, an ordinary one has no chance against it as these Pokemon are extra tough and powerful.
Still, there are some protocols for how players can use them.

Players can also team up with friends who are other trainers to join the legendary raid battle to defeat the Legendary Pokemon and earn the chance to catch it.”

The video also showed the Pokemon CP, starting with Lugia 35,000 CP, Ho-Oh 32,000 CP, Zapdos 29,000 CP, Articnos 30,000 Cp, and Moltres 28,000 CP.
