Today Is Deoxys Raid Day In Pokémon GO: Full Details

Deoxys Raid Day is happening this afternoon in Pokémon GO. Let's get into the details.

Here's what is happening with Deoxys Raid Day today in Pokémon GO:

• Date and time: Sunday, September 11th, 2022 from 2 OM – 5 PM
• Features:
  • Deoxys will be appearing with greater frequency in Tier Five Raids in all of its Formes: Defense Forme, Speed Forme, Normal Forme, and Attack Forme.
  • Deoxys will have an increased Shiny rate. The normal rate is one in 20 so it makes sense to assume that the Raid Day rate matches previous Raid Day rates of one in 10. Niantic's explicit confirmation of the increased Shiny rate backs this up.
  • Finally, you can earn five additional Raid Passes by spinning Gym discs.

Here's what is happening in Pokémon GO during the Psychic Spectacular 2022 event which will still be live through and after Deoxys Raid hour:

• Date and time: Tuesday, September 6th, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. to Monday, September 12th, 2022, at 8:00 p.m. local time.

We shall see!
  • Legacy Move for Alakazam: You can evolve up an Abra or Kadabra to the final stage or or catch Alakazam in raids during the event to get an Alakazam that knows the Charged Attack Psychic.
