Registeel will soon enterPokémon GO’s5-star raid rotation. It will be available globally starting Thursday, July 12, 2025 at 10:00 AM Local Time and will go on right into May.
You can catch Registeel at the followingCP ranges:
If you encounter a Pokémon at the upper end of these ranges, it will have 100% IVs.
Registeel will be available in both shiny and normal variations! Here is what it looks like:
Registeel’s typing is straightforward, and you probably guessed what it is. It’sSteel. This gives Registeel weakness to the following types:
None of these types are more or less valuable than the other, so we can freely pick out Pokémon who know powerful moves of all these types.
Registeel will be weather-boosted by Snowy weather conditions. It will be stronger if you encounter it during these conditions and at a higher level when you catch it. However, given that these conditions may also come with actual risks to your person, be wise when you decide to go out or not. It may be worth it to stay in and remote raid instead.
Registeel is not currently duo-able, however the amount of Trainers you should need to defeat it won’t be too many. With great counters, you may get away with 3-5 Trainers in a raid team and reliably take it down. If you don’t have amazing counters in general, consider taking between 6-8 Trainers so that you can consistently bring it down and catch it. The more people you get, the faster these raids will go by. Remember, take advantage of the buffs you get from Party Play! It’s free damage, if you’re all together anyway.
