Pokémon Go: All 5-Star Raids in September 2024
Another month, another new set of challenges in Pokémon Go: several Legendary Pokémon are itching for battle and can be fought in the mobile game's 5-Star Raids over the course of September 2024.
Table of Contents
You can participate in 5-Star Raids alone or with a group by using up a Raid Pass at a gym or activating the long distance version of the item from anywhere with an internet connection, though your Pokémon will do less damage from far away and you'll get less rewards. The amount of remote raids you can do is limited now as well. Defeating the raids boss in these battles allows you to catch the vanquished foe for your own team and rewards you with items and Candy.
