Suicune is part of the trio of legendary beasts that are currently traveling the world in Pokémon GO. This means that we can only find each of them in specific areas for one month. In October, Suicune will be available as a raid boss in Europe and Africa. You can learn how to effectively defeat the water Pokémon in our guide.

About 6-7 trainers are recommended for the battle against Suicune. However, you might also be able to defeat it with fewer trainers.

Catching Suicune – Low Catch Chance, Use Curveballs!
The base catch chance for Suicune is very low. We recommend using berries and throwing curveballs if you want to catch the legendary Pokémon. You will find an overview of the catch rates in the following table. The bonuses for the bronze, silver, and gold medals still need to be added.
Razz Berries and Golden Razz Berries are therefore a great help when catching the beast.
Suddenly a green screen before you can catch Suicune? This bug annoys many players!
