Finding and Battling Raid Dens

Locating and Challenging Raid Dens

Raid dens in this data pack are constructed from calcite and skystone blocks, making them visually distinct structures scattered throughout your world. Search varied terrain to locate these custom-built formations.

Once you find a den, interact with it to initiate a boss battle against a powerful raid monster. These encounters feature competitive movesets and challenging abilities designed to test your team's strategy. Prepare counter-type Pokémon and plan your moves carefully.

After defeating a raid boss, you can throw a capture ball to catch the monster and add its rare form to your collection. Each den offers a unique encounter, so exploring multiple dens provides access to over 300 different raid battles and special regional variants with new type combinations and rare ability combinations.
