Tonight Is Darkrai Raid Hour In Pokémon GO: November 2023

Tonight is Darkrai Raid Hour In Pokémon GO, as this final vestige from the Halloween Event lays its curse upon Tier Five raids once more.



Article Summary

  • Tonight is Darkrai Raid Hour in Pokémon GO, it's the last Halloween vestige in Tier Five raids.
  • Gyms will feature Darkrai from 6 p.m - 7 p.m and can be tackled using specific Pokémon types.
  • The November 2023 schedule includes Darkrai, Douse Drive Genesect, Virizion, Cobalion, and Terrakion in raids.
  • November's Mega Raids in Pokémon GO will feature Mega Banette, Mega Houndoom, Mega Gallade, and Mega Kangaskhan.

While the Halloween Event 2023 may indeed be over in Pokémon GO, a single vestige remains, haunting the game for one more Raid Hour: Darkrai. Before Douse Drive Genesect takes over with the next Raid rotation, Darkrai features in tonight's Raid Hour one last time from 6 p.m – 7 p.m. During this Raid Hour, most Gyms in the game will feature this Dark-type Mythical Pokémon in Tier Five Raids. In order to defeat Darkrai, you're going to want to go in with Fighting-types (Terrakion, Keldeo, Blaziken, Machamp, Conkeldurr, Lucario), Fairy-types (Gardevoir, Diancie, Xerneas), and Bug-types (Volcarona, Heracross, Beedrill). If you're a Shiny hunter, keep in mind that Darkrai can indeed be Shiny, so be sure to get out there and play if this Halloween specter has yet to sparkle for you.
