Which monsters are particularly interesting? In September, there are a variety of Mega Raids in Pokémon GO, some of which feature strong attackers. In particular, Mega Charizard X, Mega Gardevoir, and Mega Lucario are at the top of the best attackers in Pokémon GO.
However, Blastoise, Venusaur, Latias, Latios, and Gyarados can also strengthen your team in their Mega forms if you still need them.
In the raid hours with Origin Dialga and Origin Palkia, you can also obtain the two monsters, with a bit of luck, with their adventure effects. These two monsters are also strong attackers.
September not only starts in Pokémon GO with new events and raids but also with a new season. You can expect new monsters in their regular forms as well as new Mega evolutions: Pokémon GO stories of transformation: What to expect in the new season
