In Pokémon GO you have only today the opportunity to unlearn Frustration
. We’ll explain how to do it and why you should.
What is Frustration
? When you defeat followers of Team GO Rocket, you have the chance to catch what is called a Shadow Pokémon at the end. These Pokémon can take less damage but deal 20% more damage. Therefore, you should not purify Shadow Pokémon if you plan to use them for battling.
However, Shadow Pokémon inherently have the charged attack Frustration
. It is generally not possible to unlearn this charged attack. Neither by using a Charged TM nor a Charged TM. But in the current Rocket Event World full of Wonders: Takeover
, you still have the chance – if you hurry.
Take the opportunity and unlearn Frustration
How long can I still unlearn Frustration
? The Rocket Event runs until tonight, March 31, 2024, at 11:59 PM. Until then, you still have the chance to unlearn the charged attack Frustration
.
How can I unlearn the charged attack Frustration? To unlearn Frustration
, you simply need to use a Charged TM on the respective Pokémon. It doesn’t matter whether you use a Charged TM or a Charged TM. Both items can be used to unlearn Frustration.
Once you have done that, you can use another Charged TM or Charged TM at any time to adjust and change the charged attack of your Shadow Pokémon.
How do I find out which Shadow Pokémon have Frustration? To find out which Shadow Pokémon still have the attack Frustration
, you can simply use the search function. Go to your Pokémon bag and enter @Frustration
in the search bar. You will then see all Pokémon that still have this attack.
If you want to save time in future Rocket Events, you can also tag the Shadow Pokémon for which you want to unlearn Frustration
. This way, you can see all the respective Pokémon at a glance.
Why should I unlearn Frustration
? Since Shadow Pokémon deal more damage than regular Pokémon, you can get stronger attackers for your teams. However, the respective Pokémon must unlearn Frustration
and learn a suitable charged attack.
The stronger a Pokémon is, the more meaningful it is to unlearn Frustration
for the Shadow variant. There are naturally Pokémon for which it particularly pays off to unlearn Frustration.
