In Pokémon GO there are hints about the next Raid Day. This is supposedly about the Bug Pokémon Pinsir. We will show you the previous information.
Here are the data sources: Dataminers have once again read the code from Pokémon GO and have come across new data regarding this Raid Day. This one focuses on Pinsir, but a specific date is still unknown.
However, it will be the first Raid Day that you can play from home. Since the introduction of Remote Raids, there have been no Raid Days.
Raid Day with Pinsir – What is known so far
These are the found data: 3 text passages support this Raid Day. It states:
- “Raid Tag: Pinsir”
- “The special Pokémon appears in all Raids”
- “Pinsir appears in all Raids”
Therefore, it seems clear that there will soon be a Raid Day with Pinsir. The only uncertainty is the date, as there is still no information about this.
How does a Raid Day proceed? Normally, an event like this lasts for 3 hours, and at each gym, a raid of the event Pokémon appears for 3 hours.
The event Pokémon then has an increased shiny chance and usually learns a special move that it can only learn during that time.
This is new for this event: For the first time, a Raid Day would also be playable from home. The new Remote Raids allow you to participate in all raids in your vicinity.
So if you live in an area where you can see many gyms nearby, you could complete these easily from home, provided you have another trainer to assist you.
It remains to be seen whether Niantic will make further adjustments to the Remote Raids so that even more trainers, who cannot see raids from home, do not have to go outside to participate in Raid Day.
What else have dataminers found? There are several other finds from the dataminers that are interesting. For example, information about a Raid Weekend with Latias and Latios has been discovered. However, the dataminers state that several past events have been added without any obvious reason. So it is likely that this Raid Weekend also counts.
In addition, it seems that you will soon be able to sort the friends list by friends who can still receive a gift. The search command “giftable” has been discovered. What exactly this could be called in German is still unclear.
A search filter like this was already found recently, but it contained errors, which is why it was deleted again.
