![]() The event blog post refers to Shadow Scyther as exclusive to a Team GO Rocket Leader, when it was previously available in regular Rocket Grunts' teams.The event Team GO Rocket Leaders Disruption was held to promote their introduction.According to in-game commentary, Arlo appears to be the counterpart of Team Leader Candela, Cliff is the counterpart of Blanche, and Sierra is the counterpart of Spark.All three Team GO Rocket Leaders have names that refer to mountainous features: "Cliff" is a vertical rock side, "Sierra" is Spanish for "mountain range", and "Arlo" is Old English for "fortified hill".They made their debut on November 7 th, 2019.Pokémon highlighted with green can be caught after winning a battle. In a single battle with a leader, the first Pokémon of each leader is always the same while the latter two are randomly chosen from three Pokémon in each column. These are the current sets of Pokémon used by each of Leaders in battles. If the battle is lost, a rematch will be offered with no penalty, but if it is won, the Rocket Radar is removed from Trainer's bag and they have to begin collecting Mysterious Components again to fight another Leader.Ĭaught Shadow Pokémon from Leaders do not necessarily have better Individual Values, but unlike those from regular Grunts, they are possible to be shiny.

The Trainer can also find leaders and engage in battle with them by tapping a Rocket Balloon that may spawn above the Trainer in the Map View, but only if a standard Rocket Radar is equipped.įor more information on Rocket Balloons, see: Team GO Rocket → Balloons. However, defeating a leader does not change the location of the PokéStops they occupy, even if you craft another radar. If the Radar interface is opened without any Team GO Rocket Leaders nearby, your Team Leader will prompt you to travel to a different location to find them, or wait until tomorrow as the hideouts change over time. A Radar may reveal multiple locations, but it is consumed after winning a battle against one leader. Without the Rocket Radar equipped, those PokéStops will only function as normal ones.
