Pokémon GO has a rotation of Raid Bosses monthly where Trainers can test their might against and earn great rewards, including Pokémon encounters, battle items, and Mega Energy. For the World of Wonders Season, the month’s Raid Bosses feature returning Legendary Pokémon, in-game debuts, and more Shiny forms.

As Trainers can expect a month full of wonderous activities; however, they'll encounter some formidable bosses that will appear in Raid battles. We’ve detailed all the five-star, Mega, and Shadow Raid encounters to anticipate in Pokémon GO for March 2024.

In addition to the five-star Raids for the month, several Pokémon are arriving in the new season as Mega Raid bosses. These raid encounters are much different from the five-star Raids as they will pit you and your Pokémon line-up against a Mega-evolved Pokémon, and defeating it rewards you with Mega Energy.
