In Pokémon GO there are new raid bosses! They are ideal counters against Kyogre, but many players are now missing an important boss.
What kind of bosses are they? After Kyogre has returned to the raids, there are now more new raid bosses. They are all good counters against Kyogre and many can be Shiny.
These highlights are included: There aren’t a lot of highlights this time. After a long time, Venusaur is returning to the raids.
The removal of Burmy is not well received. Many players enjoyed this 1-star raid, and now there is no chance to get it anymore.
These are the raid bosses for the Kyogre event
| Raid Level | Pokémon |
| Level-1 Raid (red egg) | Electrike Shinx Lotad Magnemite |
| Level-2 Raid (red egg) | Flinx Electabuzz Capri Weepinbell Electrode |
| Level-3 Raid (yellow egg) | Tangela Jolteon Machamp Alolan Raichu |
| Level-4 Raid (yellow egg) | Absol Tyranitar Alolan Marowak Venusaur |
| Level-5 Raid (black egg) | Kyogre |
This is what players are missing: With the raid bosses with Cresselia, there were all 3 forms of Burmy as a 1-star raid. This was well received, as especially the Burmy in Sand Cloak was popular because it was very rare outside of raids.
Now the raids are gone for now, and all players who have not secured enough Burmy have to hope for wild spawns.
Which bosses are worth it? Currently, there are many Electric and Grass-type Pokémon. They are at least effective against Kyogre, which is currently in the legendary raids.
In the raids, we have some pre-evolutions of good counters. So, Magnemite, Electabuzz, and Tangela are especially worth it, as their evolutions are good counters against Kyogre.
These bosses can be Shiny: The list of possible Shinies from raids is also long. Here you can encounter shiny forms:
- Electrike
- Magnemite
- Lotad
- Shinx
- Flinx
- Alolan Raichu
- Alolan Marowak
- Absol
- Kyogre
How long will the bosses be available? The current raid bosses will most likely leave the raids with the disappearance of Kyogre. Kyogre will only be available until June 27 at 10 PM. After that, Groudon will come.
