Catch Mega Metagross in Raid Day Event on Oct 4, 2025
Trainers, mark your calendars for Saturday, October 4, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM! That's when Mega Metagross, the powerful Steel and Psychic type Pokémon, will debut in raids as part of a special Raid Day event in Pokémon GO. This is your chance to catch Mega Metagross for the first time in raids, gather Mega Energy, and shiny hunt.
To succeed in defeating Mega Metagross, trainers should prepare a team of counters beforehand. Some of the most effective Pokémon include Proto-Groudon with Mud Shot and Earthquake, and Mega-Groudon Y with Fire Blast and Inferno. These Ground and Fire type Pokémon exploit Mega Metagross' weaknesses.
Necrozma (Morning Star) with Dark Claw and Shadow Ball is another top choice, using its Dark type moves to counter the Steel and Psychic types of Mega Metagross. With optimal counters and strategy, Mega Metagross can be defeated with as few as 2 trainers.
Mega Metagross' reappearance in the game is not yet known, so don't miss this opportunity to catch it and secure high IV versions. Shiny Metagross can also be obtained after defeating Mega-Metagross in a Raid Battle. Trainers, get ready to strategize and conquer Mega Metagross in the upcoming Raid Day event!
