Pokemon GO Raid Boss Schedule For July 2024

's Raid Boss schedule for July 2024 features the return of some beloved Legendaries like Articuno and Tornadus, as well as several Ultra Beasts. This month also sees the arrival of Pokemon GO Fest 2024, which will have its own roster of Raid Bosses to battle. Then, as always, there will be special Shadow Raids featuring Shadow Pokemon on the weekends.

Raid Battles are a key part of the experience, giving Trainers a chance to catch powerful creatures including fan-favorite Legendaries. Every month, the schedule for 5-Star Raid Bosses and Mega Raid Bosses changes, which is the game's way of keeping things fresh. Here, you can find out exactly which Pokemon you can battle in Raids this month.

Shiny odds in Pokémon GO work very differently compared to the rates in the mainline series. There are a few factors that make them so different.

5-Star Raids will play host to a lot more Pokemon than usual in July, with some of them only sticking around for a day or two. The iconic Legendary bird Ho-Oh is kicking things off for the first week of the month, before several Ultra Beasts muscle their way into 5-Star Raids in the build-up to Fest 2024. Later, you'll be able to battle Articuno and Incarnate Forme Thundurus.

With so many 5-Star Raid Bosses making an appearance in this month, it would be a good idea to decide which ones you want to catch and mark them down in your calendar. You can see details of each Raid Boss, the dates they'll be available to battle, and their weaknesses in the table below.
