Raids look pretty dry for Pokémon Go in August 2024, especially compared to July’s Raid boom, where every Ultra Beast was available.

It makes sense, though. After Pokémon Go Fest Global, what’s on offer in August doesn’t feel as spectacular, considering how spoilt for choice we were in July. We also have the Pokémon World Championships this month, so most Pokémon resources are going toward the big announcements there.

There aren’t any new Pokémon to catch this month in Raids, but you can catch Shiny versions of all Pokémon if you missed out on any.

On top of this, Raid hours are from 6pm to 7pm local time every Wednesday. Aug. 7 has Moltres, Aug. 14 has Thunderus (Incarnate Form), and Aug. 21 and Aug. 28 have Xerneas. There are no bonuses during this time frame, but it gives you a better chance of finding raids and, hopefully, a Shiny.
