Frequently Asked Questions
General Raid Information
- Can you do a 5-star raid with 4 people?: While it’s possible to attempt a 5-star raid with 4 people, the success rate may be lower compared to having a larger group of players, as 5-Star Raids feature Legendary Pokemon and are sometimes very tough to beat.
- How many players can be in a raid?: Any number of Trainers can join a raid, but only in groups of up to 20 Trainers.
- Can one person do a 4-star raid in Pokemon go?: It’s not recommended to attempt a 4-star raid alone, as Raid Battles aren’t your typical Gym Battle and your opponent is more difficult to defeat than most other Pokemon.
