1-star Raids

  • Paldean Wooper is worth raiding since Clodsire is a good monster to have for the GO Battle League.
  • Hisuian Sneasel is worth raiding because Sneasler is ranked #85 in the Ultra League.
  • Bagon is also a good mon to raid, as Mega Salamence is an amazing Dragon-type Pokemon.
  • Deino is worth raiding, as its evolution Hydreigon is a top Dark-type attacker.

3-star Raids

  • Galarian Weezing is worth raiding because it is ranked #102 in the Ultra League
  • Druddigon and Turtonator don't have much use in the current Pokemon GO meta. So, you can raid them if you need them to add to the number of Dragon-type monsters caught for your Poipole evolution.

5-star Raids

Blacephalon and Stakataka are worth raiding, as they are debuting in Pokemon GO. If you have to choose between these monsters, you can eliminate the latter since it does not have much meta-relevance.


Mega Raids

Mega Pidgeot is a top Flying-type attacker, and if you need Mega Energy for this monster, raiding it will definitely be worth your raid passes during the event.
