How to Obtain a Dragalge

According to Niantic, there will be a new “Rivals Week” event on Pokemon GO coming soon. The event will usher the debut of new Pokemon into Pokemon GO such as Skrelp and Clauncher. It will also bring Therian Forme Landorus into five-star raids for the very first time.

The event begins Tuesday, 13 April 2021, at 10 AM local time and will continue until Sunday, April 18, 2021, at 8 PM local time. Throughout this time Skrelp and Clauncher will be making appearances all over the PokeWorld and ours so be on the lookout. They can be found in the wild, in raids, and even in encounters after one has completed a Field Research task. The chances are there, the players just have to take them.

So to answer the big question, how does one obtain a Dragalge from this event? As of 6 April, the only known way to obtain a Dragalge in Pokemon GO is to catch a Skrelp and fully evolve it all the way up. Now, this writer is well aware that may not be the ideal way to obtain a Dragalge but currently that is the only option players have to catch such an incredibly cool Pokemon. At least this method will be a breeze if players really take advantage of Rivals Week.
