We go over all the raid leaders in September, starring the Mega Evolutions of Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur.
Mega Evolutions and Mega Raids are the big news in Pokémon GO content for September. Summer is over, but Niantic’s game is stronger than ever – August was its best month in billing since summer 2016 – and content will not stop arriving in the coming dates. Like every month, we are going to review all the raid bosses planned for this month of September with their exact dates and details to take into account.
Raid system changes: 1, 3 and 5 stars
Before we start, we have to indicate a fundamental change from this September in Pokémon GO: the raids will be 1, 3 and 5 stars from now on. In order to speed up the readability of the raids and given the small difference between the eliminated typologies compared to their immediately previous ones, the 2 and 4-star raids disappear to be integrated into the 1 and 3-star ones, respectively.
Likewise, the raids against mega-evolved Pokémon, the Mega Raids, will have their own epigraph in our guides, but it must be clear that their difficulty is 5 stars. For this month we have Mega Charizard X and Y, Mega Blastoise and Mega Venusaur. As always, we indicate with an asterisk (*) those Pokémon that we can find in their shiny / variocolor form.
