Battle mechanics

Mega required

Party must include at least 1 Mega-evolved Pokémon. Effectiveness scales if all participants bring Mega Pokémon.

Boss shield

The boss uses shields that significantly reduce damage. Each trainer can only break one shield, so enough trainers are needed.

Enraged state

When the boss becomes enraged, its attack sharply increases. Focus on dodging during enraged phases.

Battle tips

You must put at least one Mega-Evolved Pokémon in the last slot of your party to enter.

As a pure Electric type its only weakness is Ground. Ground attackers like Primal Groudon and Mega Garchomp are overwhelmingly effective.

8+ trainers recommended — this Super Mega Raid needs a crowd.

In rain the Raichu you catch is weather-boosted (Level 25) with higher CP and IVs.

Raichu caught during the event auto-unlock at least Mega Level 1.
