During the Pokemon GO Primal Rumblings event, from February 22 to February 24, 2023, the following Pokemon will be available to battle in Raids:
- Tier 1
- Treecko
- Torchic
- Mudkip
- Tier 3
- Grovyle
- Combusken
- Marshtomp
- Tier 5

Not only is Rayquaza returning to Pokemon GO Raids, but any Rayquaza caught during the Primal Rumblings event will know the exclusive charged attack Breaking Swipe.
What’s more, if you’re lucky, you can catch the ultra-cool shiny Rayquaza, in addition to the shiny versions of both Latias and Latios!
As well as being Raid bosses during Primal Rumblings, the Hoenn starter Pokemon will also be available to encounter as part of the wild Pokemon spawns in the Primal Rumblings event. Therefore, you may want to save your Raid Passes for the Legendary Pokemon.
Check out the table below to see if you can catch the shiny version of any of these Raid bosses after beating them. Plus, find out the exact chances of catching shiny Pokemon in Pokemon GO!

While, they may not be Raid bosses yet, we also know that Primal Reversion has finally arrived in Pokemon GO. Much like Mega Evolution, this will let you transform two particular Legendary Pokemon into their Primal forms.
To do this, find out how to get Primal Groudon as well as how to get Primal Kyogre in Pokemon GO. You won’t want to miss out on getting both of these Primal evolutions while you can still get them!
