It is not yet known if the event will be rescheduled, among other things, Lugia Raid is only the latest of the suspended events due to continuing concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic.
Pokémon Go rearranges everything
After the cancellation of the community day of march, the events of the Safari area postponed to a date yet to be defined, now even a highly anticipated Raid has been postponed.
For security reasons, Niantic has made it easier to play Pokémon Go from home. The developer has increased the daily bonuses and made other changes to the game, including increasing the number of gifts you can open each day and the introduction of 1 PokeCoin bundle in the in-game store.
Cobalion was about to abandon Raids in Pokémon Go, and the new legendary Pokemon ready to take his place had to be just Lugia, the flying-psycho type protagonist of Pokémon Silver and the movie "The strength of one ". The Lugia in question would have been gifted with a special and very powerful move, Aerocolpo, and the chances of encountering its chromatic form would have been higher than usual.
