Niantic and The Pokémon Company have just announced the arrival in Pokémon GO of the Team Go Rocket bosses! Sierra, Cliff, Arlo and none other than Giovanni will give you a hard time.
How to face the Team Rocket Bosses?
- First, you have to fight against Team Rocket GO henchmen, by turning Shadow Pokéstops.
- After beating a henchman, you can get mysterious components. You need to collect 6 pieces of them to be able to assemble them and build a Rocket Radar.
- Using this Rocket Radar, you can find Cliff, Sierra and Arlo on the map and fight them.
- By winning the fights against these Bosses, you win more rewards like the Unys Stone!
- Be careful, the Rocket Radar only works once for each boss.
