Raid Battles and New Gym Features are Coming!

Trainers,

The biggest update to Pokémon GO is nearly here! Very soon, Trainers around the world will be able to participate in a revamped Gym gameplay experience, including the opportunity to join together with others to battle against powerful Pokémon in the new Raid Battle feature!

New Gym Features and Updates: Starting soon, Gyms are undergoing a major facelift. You’ll soon be able to spin the Photo Disc at Gyms to acquire items just as you do at PokéStops—but that’s only the beginning. More updates to Gym battles are also just around the corner. Gyms are no longer based on Prestige and training. Instead, they now feature six permanent slots that can be filled by the controlling team’s Pokémon. Each Pokémon assigned to these slots must be unique. For example, only one Blissey can be assigned to a Gym at a time. In addition, opposing teams will battle the Pokémon in the order they were assigned to the Gym.

At the heart of the update is a new motivation system that will significantly change how you interact with Gyms. When a Pokémon is assigned to a Gym, a motivation meter will be displayed. Pokémon assigned to defend a Gym lose motivation over time and as they are defeated in battle. As a Pokémon loses motivation, its CP will temporarily decrease, making it easier for opposing teams to defeat. To help keep the Pokémon motivated and in tip-top shape for their next battle, Trainers can treat their team’s Pokémon to some Berries, which restore their motivation. If a Pokémon loses all motivation, it will leave the Gym and return to its Trainer the next time it loses a battle, so you’ll want to keep your team’s Pokémon motivated by giving them Berries frequently!

Gym Badges: Now you’ll be able to earn Gym Badges when interacting with the many Gyms around the world. Gym Badges serve as mementos of your Pokémon GO adventures and reflect your contribution to a Gym’s success.

You’ll be able to level up your Badges by battling, giving Berries to the Pokémon in the Gym and spinning the Gym’s Photo Disc. You can earn the opportunity to receive bonus items and increased rewards from Gyms by raising the level of your Gym Badge.

New Raid Battle Feature: All around the world, you’ll soon be able to participate in the new Raid Battle feature at Gyms. A Raid Battle is a cooperative gameplay experience that encourages you to work with other Trainers to defeat an extremely powerful Pokémon known as the Raid Boss. Before a Raid Battle begins, a large Egg will appear atop the Gym. When the countdown above the Egg reaches zero, the Raid Boss will be revealed.

Before you can battle the Raid Boss, you’ll need a Raid Pass. You can get one free Raid Pass per day by visiting a Gym, but you can only hold one at a time. You can also get Premium Raid Passes from the in-game shop. Upon using your pass to join the battle, you and up to 20 other Trainers work together to defeat the Raid Boss. If you successfully defeat the Raid Boss within the five-minute time limit, you’ll have the chance to catch an extra powerful Pokémon of your own!

New Items: After defeating a Raid Boss, you’ll receive a collection of rewards, including some new items obtained only by defeating a Raid Boss: Rare Candies, Golden Razz Berries, and two types of Technical Machines—Fast and Charged. A Rare Candy is a mysterious candy that, when used on a Pokémon, turns into that Pokémon’s Candy. Golden Razz Berries will greatly increase your chances of catching a Pokémon you encounter in the wild and can also be given to a Pokémon assigned to a Gym to fully recover its motivation meter. Technical Machines are items you can use to permanently teach a Pokémon a new Fast Attack or Charged Attack.

To put these exciting changes in motion, we’ll be temporarily disabling all Gyms. Once the update has been rolled out to players around the world, Gyms will return. The Raid Battle feature will then be rolled out slowly over the next few weeks, starting as a beta, with raids visible only to a subset of players at certain Gym locations. Over a few days, we’ll invite more players to participate and enable raids at more Gyms around the world. Keep an eye on our social media channels for updates on when you’ll be able to start battling in raids. We can’t wait to see you outside battling at your local Gyms!

Pokemon Go Guide: Where to Find Magikarp and Gyarados

Pokemon Go Guide: Where to Find Magikarp and Gyarados

Pokemon Go has a lot of Pokemon for you to hunt down and catch. Some are easy to find, while others are harder. In the latter group are certain Pokemon who only appear in special places, making them much harder to find than their more common counterparts. Magikarp is one of these Pokemon, where he is common in some places, but extremely rare in others. Making things worse, Magikarp evolves into Gyarados, one of the coolest and strongest Pokemon in the game, and you need a ton of them to do this. So, we’re gonna give you some tips on where to find Magikarp and Gyarados in Pokemon Go.

Water, it’s all about water. Magikarp is a water type, but he is attached to water in a much stronger way than any others, such as Squirtle or Psyduck. The beach is the ideal spot, if you have any near you, but Magikarp seems to spawn in more of a region, than a specific spot. If you are in a city near the water, he might pop up anywhere nearby, but if there’s some large enough body of water to register as such in the game, there’s a huge chance that you’ll find Magikarp there.

Once you find a good spot be sure to visit it often, as Magikarp doesn’t seem to be classified as a rare spawn. If he pops up somewhere, the chance is that he’ll do so multiple times throughout the day. You can also find hotspots, likely near a major body of water in your town, where tons of Magikarp will spawn. Be sure to catch them all, cause you need to capture at least 100 Magikarp in order to evolve one into Gyarados.

You can still find Gyarados in Pokemon Go, but he is definitely a rare spawn. The beach seems to be the best place, but it is far from a sure thing that he’ll even appear there. Still, while hunting for Magikarp, be sure to keep an eye out for the slim chance that a Gyarados will spawn and save you from farming all those fish.

Pokemon Go Confirms Shiny Magikarp Will Appear after Water Festival Event Ends

Pokemon Go Confirms Shiny Magikarp Will Appear after Water Festival Event Ends
Christian Hoffer- 03/29/2017

Last week, Pokemon Go surprised fans by introducing Shiny Magikarp and Shiny Gyarados into the popular mobile game as part of its special "Water Festival" event. Shiny Pokemon are super-rare alternate colored Pokemon, and fans were delighted to have another type of Pokemon to hunt for after completing their regular PokeDex.

While there was concern that the Shiny Magikarp would disappear at the end of the Water Festival, Pokemon Go confirmed that the Shiny Pokemon are here to stay. In a brief tweet, the mobile app's PR team stated that players should still keep an eye out for the uber-rare Pokemon:

The Water Festival has come to an end, but rare golden Magikarp are still out there. Keep an eye out, Trainers!

Although there's no in-game advantage to using a Shiny Magikarp in battle, they're currently one of the hardest to find Pokemon in the game. Players can also evolve the Shiny Magikarp into a Red Gyarados, a fearsome Pokemon that would look wonderful at the top of any Pokemon gym.


As of right now, it appears that the Shiny Magikarp and Gyarados are the only Shiny Pokemon in Pokemon Go. Some websites speculated that more Shiny Pokemon would be added at the end of the Water Festival, but that doesn't to be the case. If anything, it's much more likely that Pokemon Go will introduce the Shiny Pokemon in small doses to keep players interested during (and after) events.

Let us know if you've found a Shiny Magikarp in the comments below and stay tuned to WWG's Pokemon page for all your Pokemon news.
