On Easter Sunday, a top raid event starts in Pokémon GO. These raids are characterized by their special difficulty. For the first time, you can fight and catch the new Pokémon Regieleki there.
What is this event? The top raids in Pokémon GO take place regularly and usually run on a single day at selected times. The next event of this kind is already scheduled for next Sunday.
Here we show you everything you need to know about the top raids with Regieleki in an overview.
Top Raids with Regieleki: Time, Shiny and Research
What times do the top raids run?
After hatching, you have 30 minutes to challenge a raid boss. It is important that you can only take part in top raids on site. This is not possible via long-distance raid.
Which Pokemon is this? Regieleki is a Legendary Pokémon that belongs to the Electric type. It makes its debut in Pokémon GO in the top raids. However, you cannot yet catch it in its dazzling form in the top raids.
If you want to catch Regieleki this time of year, the top raids on April 9th are your only chance to do so.
Temporary research: Update from April 6th at 7:05pm: Niantic announced on Twitter that the Timed Research for this event will be cancelled. The reason for this is the assignment of research that you want to improve. The Timed Research will then be released at a later date, which is still unclear.
This is how the research was planned: If you take part in a top raid, you can also participate in a timed research. For completing the tasks, you will be rewarded with candies for Regirock, Regice, and Registeel.
Will you be participating in the top raids on Sundays or will you be busy during the holidays? Many more events await you in Pokémon GO in April.
