Walking with Irisalis
The short version
Walking with Irisalis and the Gift of Blessing is the long second phase of the Legendary Journey, from 25 September to 9 December. It centres on the encounter with Irisalis, which Game8 lists as a Legendary Grass DPS that can only be caught in its Legendary encounter.
The developers describe the encounter in their pre-launch letter: once your Legendary Aniipod is crafted, the encounter appears on the map; you follow the story, defeat Irisalis and throw the pod you made. They say this flow is the template for future Legendaries. What the Gift of Blessing contains has not been announced.
