In Shadow Raids, Trainers can take on powerful Shadow Pokémon for a chance to recruit powerful new fighters for their team:
Unlike normal raids, these criminals take over the tower and leave a shadow Pokémon there, which becomes a particularly powerful raid boss. XNUMX-star and XNUMX-star Shadow Raid Bosses will go on a rampage, boosting their attack and defense:
Remember, joining the Shadow Raid using the Remote Raid Pass is not possible.
In addition, it is possible to weaken the Raging Shadow Raid Boss with Purified Gems, which can be obtained from Shadow Shards by pre-processing 4 of these stones in the Shard Refiner:
