How to Get Origin Forme Palkia in Pokemon GO Raids

Taking down Origin Forme Palkia requires careful planning and usually a good-sized group of trainers. For experienced players with top-tier counters like Mega Rayquaza or Mega Garchomp, you can succeed with as few as 3-4 trainers.

However, if you’re working with mid-level Pokemon or aren’t maxed out yet, aim for a group of 5-7 trainers to be safe. New players or those without optimal counters should try to join larger groups of 8 or more trainers.

To maximize your chances of catching Origin Forme Palkia, use Golden Razz Berries and aim for “Excellent” curveball throws. Remember that if you catch one before November 24, it has a chance to know its signature move Spacial Rend.
