Thank you to Amiibofan101 from reddit for the help with this information! Heatran has also returned to five-star raids, while four Pokémon - Ursaring, Donphan, Medicham and Absol - are appearing in three-star raids. In one-star raids, you can battle Alolan Geodude, Onix, Beldum and Bronzor. The shiny versions of Slugma and Magcargo, its evolution, have also been released as part of Mountains of Power. Slugma is one of the Pokémon appearing more frequently in the wild, so keep an eye out to see if you can add another shiny to your collection! The other Pokémon appearing more frequently in the wild, include:
Zubat Machop Geodude Onix Nosepass Barboach Ferroseed
This gives you a good amount of time to collect and complete any of the field research tasks which catch your eye and catch the Pokémon which are spawning more regularly in the wild. Have fun during the Mountains of Power event!
