Pokémon Go: All 5-Star Raids in November 2024

Check out all 5-Star Raids in Pokémon Go this month
Niantic

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 November 2024.

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.

Here are all Pokémon Go 5-Star Raids in November 2024.
