Trainers, Deoxys Raid Day has started and all four forms pf Deoxys are now appearing more frequently in Raids.
Niantic and Pokemon Go are holding a special Raid Day to celebrate the Mythical Pokemon Deoxys and for a limited time all four forms of Deoxys, Normal, Attack, Defense and Speed form Deoxys will be appearing more often in Raids. Also, you can earn up to five additional daily Raid Passes by spinning Gyms and the chance of encountering Shiny Deoxys has been increased only for the event times.
According to reports Deoxys Raids have one-hour timers and these Raids can be done remotely. Yes, that’s right, they come in waves. As for shiny rates, the chances of getting a shiny Deoxys are around 1/10. Some players even report that they’ve done eight Raids and got three Shiny Deoxys. Do you think we are that lucky?
