Pokémon Go: Test Your Battle Skills in Sparring Partners Raid Day This Week

Get ready for an action-packed day as Pokémon Go's Sparring Partners Raid Day hits the scene on April 13th. From 2:00 to 5:00 pm local time, you'll have a three-hour window to showcase your battling prowess, hunt for Shiny Pokémon, and take on some of the toughest Fighting-type Pokémon around.

The star of the show is Mega Heracross, making its debut in Mega Raids. But that's not all—keep an eye out for Hariyama and Scraggy, who will be appearing in regular raids with increased Shiny encounter rates. It's the perfect time to test your skills against these powerful brawlers.

Alongside the raids, a new Charged Attack called Upper Hand will be introduced. This move packs a punch with 70 power in Trainer Battles and can lower your opponent's Defence. In raids and gyms, it delivers a solid 50-power hit, giving you a strategic advantage in your battles.

To make the most of the event, take advantage of the bonuses on offer. Spin Gym Photo Discs to collect up to six free Raid Passes, and enjoy an increased Remote Raid Pass limit of 20 for the weekend, allowing you to participate in raids from anywhere.

For those looking to enhance their experience, a $4.99 ticket is available, unlocking additional Raid Passes, bonus XP, increased Stardust, and a higher chance of obtaining Rare Candy XL. Don't miss out on using *Pokémon Go codes* to grab a variety of free rewards!

Make sure to complete the free Timed Research during the event to earn a substantial amount of Stardust and other raid-related boosts before time runs out. Additionally, a special ticket bundle in the Pokémon Go Web Store includes a Premium Battle Pass, adding even more value to your Raid Day experience.
