TheDecember 2022Pokemon GOevents calendaris jam-packed with exciting holiday activities for trainers to enjoy. While they are running around taking on Legendary Battle Raids and enjoying the Season of Mythical Wishes bonuses, they may occasionally have a run in with some Team GO Rocket trouble, as well.
Team Rocket Leaders will be available as player work their way towardsa battle with Giovanni, but they are also going to have the chance to face off against some Team Rocket Grunts throughout December. Although these challengers aren’t as tough to defeat as the Team Rocket Leaders,Pokemon GOtrainers still need to prepare carefully for each battle or optimize their counter rosters.
