Two new Pokémon debut: Shroodle and its evolution, Grafaiai, hatching from 12 km Eggs. Team GO Rocket will be more active at PokéStops and in balloons, providing ample opportunities to purify your Shadow Pokémon using Charged TMs to remove Frustration.

New Shadow Pokémon join the fray: Shadow Taillow, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, Trubbish, and Bunnelby—some may even be Shiny! For the first time, you can use Remote Raid Passes to participate in Shadow Raids, regardless of location.

ytA special research task rewards you with a Super Rocket Radar to battle Giovanni and save Shadow Palkia. Field Research tasks offer Mysterious Components, Charged TMs, and Fast TMs, while completing a Collection Challenge grants Stardust and a Trubbish encounter.
