A new season of Pokemon GO has rolled around with new Pokemon, new raids, and bonuses. Pokemon GO raids allow players to battle and check some higher-level and even exclusive Pokemon. Trainers will need to be aware that these do change every month, so check back to know what Pokemon can be battled.
When it comes to Pokemon GO raids, it is best to always gather a group of players, whether by using the Campfire app or inviting friends along for the journey. Having enough trainers in a raid battle will increase the chances of winning and, therefore, catching the Pokemon.

Pokemon GO June Raid Schedule
There are a few different types of raids that players can take part in each month in Pokemon GO. There are Mega Raids, 5-Star Raids, 3-Star Raids, and 1-Star Raids.
It is worth noting that 3-Star Raids and 1-Raids often change without any schedule or pattern, unlike Mega Raids or 5-Star Raids. After each type of Raid battle, players will have the opportunity to catch the Pokemon they battled. Below is a list of each Pokemon featured in this month's raid schedule:
Mega Raid Schedule
- Mega Pidgeot: May 23 – June 1
- Mega Gyarados: June 1 – June 10
- Mega Alakazam: June 10 – June 19

Players can participate in these raids until the end of the month or the dates given above, giving them the opportunity for some cool rewards and a chance to catch the Pokemon they just battled.
The best tip going into any form of raid is to use powerful Pokemon that are strong against the type in the raid. If it is a higher-ranking raid, such as Mega, or 5-Star, it is best to get a team with the trainer so that they have the best outcome in checking the Pokemon.
Players who don't travel much might find it difficult to take part in raids, but those concerned can use a Remote Raid Battle Pass. These can be purchased from the Pokemon GO in-game store.
