In Pokémon GO there are new raid bosses again. And they can be very useful for you if you have been working on a specific research for years.
What research is it about? It is about the special research More about Meltan
, which was unlocked in Pokémon GO in 2018. It consists of 9 steps, in which you have to catch some quite rare Pokémon among other things.
While some of the Pokémon in the research are quite common and therefore easy to catch, there are other specimens, that have been tormenting trainers for years.
With the new raid bosses, many of you who have not been able to finish the research might have a reason to cheer.
Perfect Raid Bosses for Step 8
Which raid bosses are they? Currently, you can find the fossil Pokémon Kabuto and Amonitas in the 1*-raids. In the 3*-raids, you can also encounter Aerodactyl. These Pokémon are necessary to complete the research.
For this, you need to catch 2 Kabuto or Amonitas as well as one Aerodactyl. If you have been stuck on this step of the research for a long time, you now have the perfect opportunity to complete the step and snag your Meltan.
What other raid bosses are currently available? Of course, it is not just the 3 Pokémon that are currently available in raids. You can find the following Pokémon in raids at the moment:
1*-raids:
- Alolan Geodude*
- Amonitas*
- Kabuto*
- Larvitar*
- Wuffels*
3*-raids:
- Onix*
- Aerodactyl*
- Nasgnet*
- Meditalis*
5*-raids:
- Regirock*
Mega-raids:
- Mega-Gyarados*
All Pokémon marked with a * can also appear as Shiny. If you want to know when the 5*- and Mega-raids will rotate, take a look at the Overview of Legendary Bosses in May 2024.
What does the community say about this? On social media, some trainers are happy that they can finally snag the missing Pokémon for the Meltan research.
