A whole new kind of Raid is now available on Pokémon GO: it allows you to capture extremely rare and powerful creatures like Hoopa Unleashed . Unfortunately, these Raids are limited in time and you have to be reactive if you don't want to miss them!
What is an Elite Raid?
Have you noticed the Raid Eggs this weekend with a 24 hour countdown? These are Elite Raids! Once the countdown is over, you only have 30 minutes to face the Raid Boss.
- It is impossible to make an Elite Raid remotely : you have to move,
- Very powerful, you need to bring together as many people as possible to try the fight and succeed,
- It is possible to capture the Pokémon if you succeed in the fight,
The first Elite Raids started on October 16 at 11 a.m., 2 p.m. and 5 p.m.
If you missed an Elite Raid, don't worry, more will return during the Season of Light!
