Legendary bosses in Pokémon GO are supposed to be special. But when Registeel leaves, players are happy.
Only a few days left: Registeel is only available this week as a boss in Pokémon GO. After that, it will disappear for an indefinite period. So if you haven’t caught one yet but want to complete your collection, you should hurry: Registeel Counter Guide: How to Defeat the Steel Raid Boss
Little use, little desire: Registeel belongs to the T5 bosses and is legendary. Usually, these monsters are strong and useful as attackers in raids. However, Registeel is less useful for many trainers as it does not perform particularly well as an attacker. Consequently, the motivation to defeat this raid boss with a group of players is low. One is not sad when a new boss is introduced soon.
When does Registeel leave?
Timeframe: Until August 16, the Steel opponent will remain – after that, the monster will disappear. Registeel has been a legendary raid boss in Pokémon GO since mid-July. It should stay for about a month.
Replacement: Registeel replaced the raid boss Regice in July. Together with Regirock, the three form the Regi Trio. It is expected that after Registeel, the last part of the trio, Regirock, will be released in Pokémon GO.
Community was unhappy with the raid boss
Unhappy players: Many players felt that Registeel was not well received in the community as a raid boss. They have been waiting for days for the boss to finally be replaced by a new one.
Survey was clear: On this topic, PokémonGOHub conducted a survey on Twitter. 12,407 people participated and voted on the question “What do you think of the Registeel raids? Are you tired of them?” as follows:
- 6% say they like the raids
- 41% rated the raids as “meh”
- 53% voted that the Registeel raids are bad
94% of the votes were negative towards the Registeel raids. Players will certainly be glad when the monster packs its bags and leaves the arenas on August 16.
Are you happy that Registeel is leaving, or did you like the boss?
