Pokémon Go Adds Dynamax Duraludon, Mega Metagross Raids

• Dynamax Duraludon makes its debut in Steel Skyline Max Battles from September 30th to October 7th
• Mega Metagross Raid Day arrives on October 4th
• Global Challenges, Field Research, and XP Celebration bonuses

Pokémon Go kicks off October with a steel-themed lineup, introducing Dynamax Duraludon in the upcoming Steel Skyline event and welcoming the highly anticipated Mega Metagross during a special Raid Day. These events complement ongoing XP Celebration bonuses, creating excellent opportunities for trainers seeking Shiny encounters, raid challenges, and additional rewards.

The Steel Skyline event begins on September 30th and continues through October 7th. The main attraction is Dynamax Duraludon's Pokémon Go debut in four-star Max Battles. You'll also encounter Dynamax Drilbur, Rookidee, and Beldum in various raid tiers, all with potential Shiny variants. Wild spawns will feature Steel-type Pokémon including Magnemite, Aron, and Togedemaru.

Global throwing challenges offer rewards ranging from bonus Candy XL to guaranteed Rare Candy XL in raids, depending on community participation. Themed Field Research and both free and premium Timed Research provide multiple ways to encounter Duraludon throughout the event.

On October 4th, Mega Metagross finally arrives for its Mega Raid Day from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM local time. The event features Shiny Metagross encounters and guarantees that all Metagross caught during raids will know Shadow Claw. Event bonuses include complimentary raid passes, increased XP and Stardust rewards, and higher Remote Raid participation limits.

These events coincide perfectly with the ongoing XP Celebration, which doubles throw XP and provides thousands of bonus XP from raids and Max Battles. These bonuses remain active until the leveling update launches on October 15th. To prepare for these events, consider visiting the Pokémon Go Web Store to stock up on essential items.
