Mega Sharpedo Raid Day Tips: Detailed Guide on Bonuses,…

The Pokemon GO Mega Sharpedo Raid Day event is poised to bring various rewards, shiny hunts, and valuable bonuses for Pokemon trainers globally. The highlight of the event is the debut of Mega Sharpedo in Pokemon GO, allowing players to strengthen their teams, earn extra rewards, and catch this powerful Water/Dark-type Pokemon.

The Mega Sharpedo Raid Day event will occur on Sunday, September 7, 2025, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time. This day will be the first appearance of Mega Sharpedo in Pokemon GO, and it will be the exclusive Mega Raid boss during the event.

Every participant will have the opportunity to enjoy several free bonuses designed to enhance the event. These include a raised limit for the Remote Raid Pass to 20, available from the day before the event until its close; up to six free Raid Passes that can be earned by spinning Gym Photo Discs; and increased odds of encountering a Shiny Sharpedo in Mega Raids.

Trainers also have the option to unlock further benefits with the event ticket for just US$4.99 (or local equivalent). This includes eight additional free Raid Passes, higher drop rates for Rare Candy XL from raids, and a 50% increase in XP and double Stardust from raid battles.

The star of the event, Mega Sharpedo, will be the sole Mega Raid boss available. Every successful raid will provide players with a guaranteed Sharpedo encounter, and a boosted possibility of it being shiny.

The event will also introduce Mega Sharpedo and Shiny Mega Sharpedo. These will be limited to this Raid Day only and cannot be encountered elsewhere. An Ultra Ticket Box, which combines the event ticket and Premium Battle Pass, and overlapping September events like the GO Pass Deluxe track offer extra XP and item rewards during the event window.

Lastly, participants should not forget to bring snacks and ensure their phones are fully charged for this action-packed adventure!
