Raids are special battles where you team up with other trainers to defeat powerful Pokemon. They appear at gyms throughout the day from 10 AM to 10 PM local time. To participate, you will need a Raid Pass , which you can get for free by spinning gym photo discs daily or purchasing from the shop.
For remote participation, you can use Remote Raid Passes to join raids from any location. After defeating a raid boss, you will get a chance to catch it using Premier Balls. The number of Premier Balls you receive depends on various factors, including damage dealt, team contribution, gym control, and friendship level with other participants.
