What it means

During Galaxy Hour, Galaxy Sprites appear more often, so it’s a good window to hunt them. The reports also say each session lasts two hours, giving players two separate chances to jump in.

Quick Scoop: If you’re in the U.S., the easiest times to remember are 2 PM ET and 9 PM ET on June 27.
