If you’re struggling to catch a Bagon in Pokemon Go, we’ve put together a handy guide to make the process easier for you, including where to look and the best counters to use.
Niantic has confirmed that Bagon will headline the April Community Classic. Therefore, you’ll want to add one to your collection.
Bagon first appeared in Gen 3 games Ruby & Sapphire and was quite difficult to track down. The only place you could catch one was by visiting a specific room in Meteor Falls, and you needed the Surf ability to get there.
Its appearances are thankfully a lot more frequent in Pokemon Go, but some trainers are still having difficulty finding one to complete their collection. Here’s the best way to get your hands on one
How to get Bagon in Pokemon Go
On April 7, 2024, Bagon will appear more frequently in the wild from 2 PM to 5 PM local time. Bagin will also be available as part of the Community Day Classic’s Field Research Tasks.
During the event, or up to two hours after, those who evolve a Shelgon will receive a Salamence that knows the Dragon-type Charged Attack Outrage.
If you cannot attend the April Community Day Classic, you can wait for Bagon to become a 1-star Raid Boss.
Can Bagon be Shiny in Pokemon Go?
Trainers will be happy to hear that the Shiny version of Bagon is currently available in Pokemon Go. You’ll have a better chance of encountering Shiny Bagon during its Community Day Classic event.
