If you’ve been playing Pokémon GO Ultra Unlock part 3 event, you may have seen the odd golden rings floating around in the sky. So, find out what these Portals in Pokemon GO are and what can you do with them.
What do these Gold Hoopa Rings or Portals in the Sky do in Pokemon Go?
These rings and portals do nothing as such. That is, they aren’t interactable as of now. They are made by Hoopa which is a psychic/ghost Mythical Pokémon introduced in generation 6. Hoopa has the ability to pass items through its hoop. It also has an alternate form Hoopa Unbound which is a psychic/dark type. Hoopa Unbound can summon Legendary Pokémon. These rings in the sky might be an indication that Niantic is going to introduce new Pokémon in the game, and Hoopa might be the one bringing them.
Why are these Strange Hoopa Rings appearing in the Sky?

Oh, and if you’re wondering when the event ends, it ends on 31st August 2021.
