Trainer Briefing
Week of November 9, 2026
Where to spend your passes this week — starting with Giratina (Altered)
The rotation has turned over again. Below is my quick take on what's genuinely worth your time in Pokémon GO this week — the raids, the events, and the shinies worth chasing. Right now there are 17 raid bosses in rotation and 3 events live, with 4 more events landing over the next seven days.
Where to spend your Raid Passes
In five-star raids you'll find Giratina (Altered) and Shadow Landorus (Incarnate). Legendaries here are the passes best spent — they earn their keep in raids for seasons, not days. And yes — the shiny of Giratina (Altered) is in the pool, so a few extra passes aren't wasted if you're a collector.
On the Mega side, Mega Sableye is available. Only bother if you're topping up Mega Energy for a type you actually raid with, or need the Mega to boost your team — remember a Mega buffs every same-type attacker in the lobby, so it earns its slot even when it isn't the top solo counter.
On the calendar
On the events front, Pokemon Fossil Museum - Chicago, adidas × Pokémon Timed Research and GO Wild Area: Gigantamax Machamp Power Up! Timed Research are running now. Check the bonuses before you sink stardust — a well-timed catch or research window can quietly double your returns.

The decisions the tables cannot make for you
Coming Back to Pokemon GO: What Changed and a First-Week Plan
Find the year you stopped playing, read only what is new for you, and spend your first week on the things that are time-gated instead of the things that are loud.
Where to Spend Stardust: A Priority Order with Worked Budgets
Level 20 to 30 costs 75,000 Stardust for 22% more stats; level 40 to 50 costs 250,000 for 6%. Almost every Stardust decision follows from those two numbers.
Level 40 to 50: Is XL Candy Worth It?
Ten levels cost 250,000 Stardust and 296 XL Candy and raise every stat by 6.3% — decisive in Master League and short-manned raids, invisible almost everywhere else.
Elite TMs: Who Deserves One and When to Wait
You get a handful of Elite TMs a year and dozens of Pokemon want one. Spend them on moves that change what a Pokemon is, and never on a move an evolve window will hand you free.
How Many Trainers Does a Raid Need? Estimating Group Size
A raid is a division problem: boss HP over the damage each trainer deals before the timer runs out. Here is how to do it for any boss instead of trusting a number someone typed once.
How to Read a Raid Counters List: DPS, TDO and Picking Your Six
A counters list answers "what deals the most damage to this boss". Picking your six means knowing what the columns measure, what they leave out, and which rows you can actually field.
