Zacian is the newest legendary Pokémon to join the roster of Pokémon GO, and players can capture one during the first week of the Ultra Unlock event. During Go Fest, players were tasked with Global Challenges every hour. These challenges consisted of tasks like capturing a certain number of Pokémon or spinning specific PokeStops before the timer ran out. Since Go Fest 2021 was a huge hit and the community completed all 24 challenges available, Niantic has rewarded players with the Ultra Unlock event. This event is broken up into three different parts, and the final part was hidden during its initial announcement. In Part Three of the Ultra Unlock event, Pokémon from Sword and Shield will be added to Pokémon GO. Zacian, the legendary Pokémon of Pokémon Sword, will be making its Pokémon GO debut. Here’s how players can find and capture this legendary Pokémon.
Zacian is on the box art of Pokemon Sword. It is one of the Hero of Many Battles Pokémon and can change its form if it has its trusty sword equipped. Zacian will be joining Pokémon GO soon, so here’s how players can add this legendary Pokémon to their collection.
The Ultra Unlock Part 3: Sword and Shield event in Pokémon GO will take place over two weeks and the first week will feature Zacian in 5-star raid battles. This will take place from Friday, August 20 at 10:00 am local time to Thursday, August 26 at 10:00 am local time. Raids are the only way to catch Zacian so far in Pokémon GO.
Since this is the first time Zacian is appearing in Pokémon GO, players will need to determine the best Pokémon to bring to the raid to counter it. It is unknown if Zacian will be a Mono-Fairy-type Pokémon or Fairy/Steel-type Pokémon when it appears in Pokémon GO. The concept of Held Items isn’t available in Pokémon GO, so unless it has its sword by default, Zacian may remain a Mono-Fairy Type. Assuming that is true, these are the best counters to bring along when going after Zacian:
- Mega Gengar: Lick and Sludge Bomb.
- Metagross: Bullet Punch and Meteor Mash.
- Dialga: Metal Claw and Iron Head.
- Excadrill: Metal Claw and Iron Head.
- Roserade: Poison Jab and Sludge Bomb.
- Gengar: Lick and Sludge Bomb.
It’s also important to bring along a group of at least five other players when participating in this 5-star raid battle. Any less, and it might not be possible to defeat Zacian. Like Zamazenta, Zacian won’t debut with its Shiny Form in Pokémon GO just yet, so players can focus on just catching the basic version for now.
Pokemon Go is available now on iOS and Android.
