Pokémon Co. offers Mega Heracross Pokémon GO Raid Battle Tips

Mega Heracross is a Bug- and Fighting-type Pokémon originally discovered in the Johto region. While Heracross has Herculean strength and is capable of easily throwing an object 100 times its own weight, Mega Heracross can grip things with its two horns and lift 500 times its own body weight.

During Mega Heracross Raid Day on April 13, 2024, the Remote Raid Pass limit for the day will be increased to 20. In addition, Trainers can get up to five Raid Passes that day by spinning Photo Discs at Gyms. Trainers who purchase the event-exclusive ticket for US$5.00 (or the equivalent pricing tier in their local currency) will be able to receive eight additional Raid Passes for spinning Photo Discs at Gyms, will have an increased chance of receiving Rare Candy XL from Raid Battles, and will receive 50% more XP and double Stardust from Raid Battles. These bonuses will be in effect from 2:00 to 10:00 p.m.

In a new feature from Pokémon Co., you can learn which Pokémon will be most effective in Raid Battles against Mega Heracross, how to catch Heracross after winning a Raid Battle, and how best to utilize the Single Horn Pokémon after you’ve caught it. If that’s some info you want to take with you into battle, you can find the details here.
