Pokémon Go Raids February 2024: All Raids Bosses and bonuses

This month is mega-loaded with raids.

Pokémon Go puts a big emphasis on Raid Battles with every new season of content and event that is added to the game. Raids rotate every month, even outside of events, so there is never a drought in Pokémon you can challenge for bonus rewards.

How do Raid Passes work in Pokémon Go?

You can get one free Raid Pass per day by visiting a gym or a Premium Raid Pass from the shop that can be used multiple times in a day. Remote Raids are also a thing, allowing players to use a Remote Raid Pass to enter a Raid on their nearby screen, or at a gym they have a Pokémon stationed at, with a distance limit of four kilometers

For players who complete a Raid, there are multiple rewards, such as a Golden Razz Berry, a Rare Candy, a TM you can get, and the ability to try and catch the Raid Boss. You will receive some Premier Balls (a minimum of five) to use in the capture attempt, along with XP depending on your performance.
