How to Catch Regidrago in Pokemon GO

Regidrago can be defeated with surprisingly few trainers, thanks to its relatively low defense stat of 101. While experienced trainers with optimal counters can take it down with just two players, we recommend gathering 4-5 Pokemon GO trainers for a comfortable raid experience, especially if you don’t have maxed-out counters.

The base catch rate of Regidrago is quite low at 2%, but you can improve your odds significantly. Use Golden Razz Berries for the best catch rate boost. Aim for Excellent curveball throws to maximize your chances. The catch CP ranges are:

• Normal: 1,614 – 1,699 CP
• Weather Boosted: 2,017 – 2,124 CP

Look for Windy weather conditions, as this will boost both Regidrago’s CP and your Dragon-type counters’ damage output.

Can Regidrago Be Shiny?

Yes! For the first time, shiny Regidrago is available in Pokemon GO. The shiny version features subtle changes, changing its arms from gray to steel blue. While the difference might be subtle, it’s still a highly sought-after variant for collectors.

While Regidrago might not be the strongest Dragon-type Pokemon in the game, its shiny debut makes this raid worthwhile. You can successfully take down and catch this legendary Pokemon with proper counters.
