A new month is here, which meansPokemon GOplayers have another lineup of Battle Raid bosses to challenge in the coming weeks. The introduction of a new Legendary, in addition to some exciting lower tier inclusions andRaid bonuses available from the Friends Fest, should help make early December a very good time to be a PvE raider.

The main attraction inPokemon GOBattle Raids right now is Terrakion. This Legendary is the most meta-relevant of the Swords of Justice Pokemon and trainers will want to make sure they secure a few strong copies of the Pokemon for future Raids and Gym defense. Players should make sure to review ourTerrakion Raid counters guideto prepare the best team for taking down the challenging new boss.

Although Terrakion may get most of the spotlight (and anew weekly Legendary Raid hour event), there are some other exciting options in the current Raid rotation worth noting. Tier 1 is fully stocked with shiny potential, so collectors will likely want to focus on those raids to work on their shiny dex. Raiders will be happy to see another opportunity to collect addition Tyranitars and Machamps, but those aren’t the only Raids worth doing.
