As the Dual Destiny season of Pokémon GO moves forward, trainers have a thrilling schedule of raids and events lined up. This season continues to celebrate Galar, Max Battles, and Gigantamax Battles, leading into the much-anticipated global Pokémon GO Tour: Unova event.
In the second month of Dual Destiny, a formidable lineup awaits in Tier Five Raids. Players will encounter Pokémon like Palkia, Dialga, and both Attack and Defense Formes of Deoxys. Registeel will take the spotlight in Shadow Raids during weekends. Mega Raids will showcase Mega Gallade, with Mega Lopunny and Mega Medicham returning.
This month, Dialga stands as the Tier Five Raid Boss. Trainers are advised to strategize and assemble the best team to tackle this challenge. Pokebattler recommends top counters such as Mega Lucario, Primal Groudon, Shadow Groudon, Mega Garchomp, and Lucario. Powering up these counters is crucial for efficiency in battles.
For trainers lacking a complete lineup of Shadow or Mega Pokémon, alternatives like Keldeo, Groudon, and Conkeldurr are effective choices. While Dialga can technically be defeated by a duo, having three trainers is safer unless using top-tier counters and movesets.
Utilize capture techniques like the Circle Lock, combined with Golden Razz Berries, to increase your chances of capturing Dialga after a raid. If you encounter a Shiny variant, it’s a guaranteed catch—opt for a Pinap Berry to maximize rewards.
Shiny hunters should note the odds of encountering a Shiny Legendary Pokémon are around 1 in 20. A perfect 100% IV Dialga will have a CP of 2307 under normal conditions, rising to 2884 when boosted by weather.
Stay alert and enjoy the raids as the Dual Destiny season unfolds. Keep checking for more Pokémon GO insights and updates!
