Team Rocket Grunts in Pokemon Go.

Team Rocket Grunts have been appearing throughout the world, taking over PokeStops to steal items from them.

Fighting Team Rocket

  • Taking on a Team Rocket Grunt is a Raid Level challenge, with only 3 Pokemon!
  • Pay attention to the saying to learn what type of Pokemon that the Grunt is using, because of the CP difference, the type advantage/disadvantage is critical!
  • These function identical to a Trainer battle, with 2 Shields and charge-up moves.
  • Pokemon knocked out in these fights need to be revived or or healed with potions.
  • The saying will tell you the strongest Pokemon on the Roster, those listed might vary.
