To the fear of some, and to the amusement of all, Team GO Rocket strikes again The villains of Pokémon GO do the trick again theirs in the Niantic game to challenge you, fight and have fun beyond just catching Pokémon. And of course rewards. But do you want to know how to get the best prizes? Well, without a doubt, facing the villain Giovanni. Here we explain what you should do.
More recruits, but this time in balloons
If you open Pokémon GO during these days, you better look at the sky inside the game Team GO Rocket has planned an invasion aerial, from where to attack and capture the Pokémon to make them dark. Basically what they have been doing in previous evil missions, but this time aerially.
That is why, during specific moments of the day, you will find hot air balloons gliding through the map of the game. Of course, their presence will be temporary, only for a few hours a day. So you should be aware of their presence.
Time windows in which the balloons appear
- 00:00 – 05:59 – First balloon
- 06:00 – 11:59 – Second balloon
- 12:00 – 17:59 – Third balloon
- 18:00 – 23:59 – Fourth balloon
Please note that a balloon will always appear when you enter the game.You can also face a maximum of four Team GO Rocket leaders per day The good thing is that you can face one at 11:59 and another at 12 p.m. change the time window.
Once you come across one of these balloons you will have to click on them to start the battle. You will do it against a Team GO Rocket minion, just like it happened a few months ago with the faulty pokéstops. It will be then when you choose your Pokémon team and face these evil recruits to defeat them. They won't fight back, so it all depends on your skill as a trainer, the types of Pokémon you have and are up against, and their level. If you manage to defeat the recruit you can capture the shadow Pokémon to release it or just keep it. But the interesting thing is not facing the rank and file of Team GO Rocket…
How to fight Sierra, Cliff and Arlo
The real battle comes against the leaders of Team GO Rocket. Sierra, Cliff and Arlo are also flying over the world in balloons, carrying out their evil plan to capture and transform Pokémon. And here you are to stop him. And to get succulent rewards after defeating them, of course.

To find them you must have the radar object. You can form one by defeating recruits in their own balloons. After getting seven of them you can start it up and find the balloons where these leaders march. Thus, you only have to click on one of them when you run into it and start the battle.
But beware, they are more trained warriors and have more resources than the recruits.They will use shields and better Pokémon. So it will be much more difficult to defeat them. Therein lies the challenge, the fun and the reason why you receive better prizes like more stardust when you beat it. It may take several tries so have your Pokémon ready for battle.
How to deal with Giovanni
Don't think the Supreme Leader of Team GO Rocket isn't commanding this aerial invasion. He is also present in his own world. Of course, it is much more complex to find it. Not because it's hidden, but because you'll need the Super Radar A unique item you'll get by defeating Cliff, Arlo, and Sierra. Only by activating it will you be able to see which balloon Giovanni is flying in so you can face him.

The process of previous Team GO Rocket attacks is repeated. You need to climb the ranks to defeat the biggest leaders. And, after that, fight Giovanni. You can also use a super radar from the previous event, if you still save it.
It will practically be an even fight, with resources of all kinds to protect their Pokémon and try to do the most damage to yours . The good thing is the rewards, which are also higher. Of course, at the moment we have not found detailed information about them.
