Shadowy Raid Returns in 'Pokémon GO'
Pokémon GO's Shadow Raid Day: A Fiery Ho-Oh Return
Get ready for a fiery showdown! Pokémon GO is hosting a Shadow Raid Day featuring the legendary Ho-Oh on January 19th, 2025, from 2 pm to 5 pm local time. This marks the first Shadow Raid Day of 2025, offering trainers another chance to capture this powerful Fire-type Pokémon.
This event builds upon the success of previous Shadow Raids introduced in 2023, providing a thrilling way to obtain these unique Pokémon variants. Past events have seen the return of popular Shadow Pokémon like Moltres and Mewtwo, and now Ho-Oh takes center stage.
Event Highlights:
- Shadow Ho-Oh Encounters: Five-star raids will feature Shadow Ho-Oh with increased shiny rates.
- Free Raid Passes: Spin Gyms to earn up to seven free Raid Passes (five base, plus two bonus).
- Sacred Fire: Use a Charged TM to teach your Shadow Ho-Oh the devastating Sacred Fire attack (130 power in Trainer Battles, 120 in Raids/Gyms).
- Raid Pass Boost (Optional): A $5 ticket increases your Raid Pass limit to 15, granting access to even more Ho-Oh encounters. This ticket also provides a 50% XP bonus and 2x Stardust from raids until 10 pm local time on January 19th. An Ultra Ticket Box ($4.99) bundles the event ticket with a Premium Battle Pass.
The January 19th event isn't the only excitement Pokémon GO has planned. Sprigatito's Community Day recently concluded, and Fidough is available until January 7th. Future events include Community Day Classic (January 25th) and the Lunar New Year event (January 29th to February 2nd). Stay tuned for more details!
