Today Is Burn Genesect Raid Hour In Pokémon GO: Adventures Abound

Today is Burn Genesect Raid Hour in Pokémon GO, and you can use these tips to play the hour and hunt for a ruby red Shiny Genesect.

Today is Burn Drive Genesect Raid Hour in Pokémon GO. From 6 PM – 7 PM, Wednesday, September 20th, Genesect will appear in Tier Five Raids all over the game. Most Gyms on your map will feature these Raids, so you will have a great chance to hunt for Shiny Genesect. Let's look at some tips for this event.

• Use Fire-types: Genesect is a dual Steel/Bug-type Pokémon, which means that it has a double weakness to Fire-types. Using powered-up Fire-types and even a Mega Charizard Y will help you take down this Mythical quickly.
• Genesect is a fairly easy duo with the use of Fire-types, so also be sure to check in with your fellow Trainers to make sure you are on the same page.
• When looking for a Pokémon with the best stats, the 100% IV Burn Drive Genesect will have a CP of 1916 in normal weather conditions and 2395 in boosted conditions.
• Using the Circle Lock Technique to guarantee Great or Excellent throws, along with Golden Razz Berries, is the best way to catch Pokémon. If you get a Shiny, though, it is a guaranteed catch so be sure to use a Pinap Berry.
• Top counters are:
  • Mega Blaziken: Fire Spin, Blast Burn
  • Mega Charizard Y: Fire Spin, Blast Burn
