Players in Pokémon GO receive items as a reward after successful raids. These rewards have now changed.
After completing a raid, players receive items as a reward. In addition to catching the raid boss, players can also receive rare candies, golden raspberries, and other useful items from raids.
Raid boss level is crucial: It’s important to know the level of the raid boss. If you fight against a level 1 raid boss, the rewards are not as high as when you fight against a level 5 raid boss. A list of all current raid bosses in Pokémon GO can be found here.
A few days ago, the distribution of items changed. Trainers now receive more stardust.
There is now more stardust and fewer raspberries
More stardust from raids: Since October 27, players receive more stardust from raids. The usual 500 stardust has now been increased to 750 stardust. Additionally, the number of items received from raids has changed.
Fewer raspberries: Players now collect fewer golden raspberries from raids. Previously, players always received two to four guaranteed raspberries.
Now there is one less guaranteed raspberry each time. Additionally, the bundles in which the raspberries were distributed have been reduced. Thus, there are also fewer golden raspberries for the players.
Receive these items from raids
The following items can be obtained from raids: Fast and Charged TMs, revives, golden raspberries, rare candies, and potions. The quantities vary among what you may receive. Trainers do not receive all items depicted in the graphic next to a raid tier, but only a portion of them.
Rewards in bundles: For rewards, it is essential to know that they are always available in bundles. For instance, there is a bundle that consists of three revives, or a bundle consisting of one rare candy. The higher the raid, the more bundles you can receive.
These items are available for a level 1 raid
From a level 1 raid, you can receive 1-2 bundles. Each bundle may contain the following:
- 1 Fast TM
- 1 Charged TM
- 2 revives
- 1 golden raspberry
- 1 rare candy
- 1 super potion
Additionally, every player who completes a level 1 raid receives
- 1 golden raspberry
- 750 stardust
These items are available for a level 2 raid
From a level 2 raid, you can receive 2-4 bundles. Each bundle may then contain the following:
- 1 Fast TM
- 1 Charged TM
- 2 revives
- 1 golden raspberry
- 1 rare candy
- 1 super potion
Additionally, every player who completes a level 2 raid receives
- 1 golden raspberry
- 750 stardust
These items are available for a level 3 raid
From a level 3 raid, you can receive 3-6 bundles. Each bundle may yield the following:
- 1 Fast TM
- 1 Charged TM
- 2 revives
- 1 golden raspberry
- 2 rare candies
- 1 super potion
Additionally, every player who completes a level 3 raid receives
- 2 golden raspberries
- 750 stardust
These items are available for a level 4 raid
From a level 4 raid, you can receive 4-8 bundles. Each bundle may contain the following:
- 1 Fast TM
- 1 Charged TM
- 3 revives
- 1 golden raspberry
- 2 rare candies
- 2 hyper potions
Additionally, every player who completes a level 4 raid receives
- 2 golden raspberries
- 750 stardust
These items are available for a level 5 raid
From a level 5 raid, you can receive 4-8 bundles. Each bundle may contain the following:
- 1 Fast TM
- 1 Charged TM
- 3 revives
- 2 golden raspberries
- 3 rare candies
- 3 hyper potions
Additionally, every player who completes a level 5 raid receives
- 3 golden raspberries
- 750 stardust
It is clear that from legendary level 5 raids, you receive the most rewards. However, these raids are generally the hardest.
The current raid boss Giratina can already be defeated with two players.
What do you think of the rewards? Are the items fairly distributed?
