Pokémon GO February 2025 Raids: Dialga, Enamorus, Xerneas and Yveltal Recap
By Matt · Published · Updated February 2025 had four legendary raid bosses: Dialga until 6 February, Incarnate Forme Enamorus from 6 to 17 February, then Xerneas and Yveltal from 17 to 24 February. Yveltal was my pick of the four, and Dialga raids were a priority if you had an Origin Forme Dialga with Roar of Time.
Here are all the legendary Pokémon that came to raids in February 2025, and my advice at the time on which ones to focus on.
The February 2025 raid schedule
- Dialga: until 6 February. Useful as a Steel attacker, but these raids were a high priority if you had an Origin Forme Dialga with Roar of Time, because you can never have enough Dialga Candy for it.
- Incarnate Forme Enamorus: 6 to 17 February. At the time, it was a top 5 Fairy attacker and a decent Flying attacker.
- Xerneas: 17 to 24 February. A strong Fairy attacker, but the shiny isn’t great.
- Yveltal: 17 to 24 February. A good Dark and Flying attacker.
Matt's takeYveltal was my pick of the four. And if you had an Origin Forme Dialga with Roar of Time, Dialga raids were worth every pass for the Candy.
