Priorities: Raiding Groudon
Groudon is back in 5-star raids, and if you’re a trainer looking to bolster your roster, this is your chance. With its solid Ground typing, Groudon stands out as a formidable Pokémon in both PvE and PvP. Focus on gathering a team of high-level counters like Kyogre, Gardevoir, and Mamoswine, which can exploit Groudon’s weaknesses to Water, Ice, and Grass moves. If you have access to strong raid friends, aim for multiple raids to maximize your chances of catching a shiny, since there’s only one available in this event.
Bonuses Worth Using
While there are no specific bonuses attached to this event, make sure to take advantage of any existing raid bonuses you may have, such as the extra Premier Balls you earn from remote raids or the 1.5x catch bonus if you’re using a Lucky Egg. These small perks can significantly increase your catch rates, especially with a high-value target like Groudon on the line.
Is It Worth Your Time?
Absolutely, if you're interested in adding a strong Pokémon to your collection. Groudon’s impressive stats and versatility make it useful in various competitive formats. It can play a key role in Great and Ultra League battles, so investing time in these raids can pay off. Even if you already have a good Groudon, the chance to snag a shiny is a fine incentive to jump in. If you’re aiming for a top-tier Pokémon for your teams, don’t miss out on this opportunity.
