October is coming to a close and once the Pokemon GO Halloween activities come to a close there will be a whole new month’s worth of exciting events firing off. The arrival of November means another rotation of Battle Raid bosses and, once again, this month is stocked with exciting meta game opportunities and lots of shiny potential.
November 2021’s calendar of events is available now, so trainers can review all of the confirmed Legendary and Mega Raid bosses that are coming to the mobile AR game throughout the coming month. Some players may be disappointed that there aren’t any brand new Legendary or Mega debuts for Pokemon GO players to get excited about, but that doesn’t mean these Battle Raids aren’t going to be popular.
For the first few days of the month, players will still have a last chance to grab Genesect Darkrai with Sludge Bomb. That battle raid is already live and trainers are going to have until November 5 to enjoy it. Once those raids rotate out the spotlight will shift to a popular trio of Pokemon who are also going to have a special move available...
