The next legendary raid bosses in Pokémon GO are Latios and Latias. As the developers explain, they will appear in a rotation very soon.
Until the evening of April 2, you can battle Lugia in Pokémon GO and even catch it in Shiny form. What special bosses will be available after Lugia has not been disclosed by the Niantic team just before Lugia’s departure. Following are two dragon Pokémon that will appear around the world separately.
Latios and Latias in Pokémon GO
In level 5 raids, trainers encounter legendary foes in Pokémon GO. Until April 2, Lugia is the legendary boss that you can meet there. From April 3, a new boss will be in level 5 raids in Europe: Latias.
The two dragon and psychic Pokémon, Latias and Latios, will come as new raid bosses.
- Latias appears as a new raid boss in Europe and Asia
- Latios appears as a new raid boss in North and South America, as well as Africa
But don’t worry, we will have the chance to catch both monsters in Europe. On May 8, the two monsters will rotate, then Latios will be available in Europe and remain for about a month. Latias will be found in North and South America, and Africa. On June 5, the two legendary bosses will disappear again.
To have good chances against the new level 5 bosses, there are also monsters in raid battles that suit well for the fight against Latios and Latias. These include, for example, Tyranitar and Flunkifer. Those who have caught Rayquaza in the last weeks will also be very effective in the fight against the two newcomers. Therefore, assemble a strong team to defeat the new bosses.
We already have a counter guide for Latios and Latias, where you can see strong attackers against the new duo. Our guide for Latios and Latias in Pokémon GO
