Pokémon GO Mr. Mime Raid Guide
Here’s some frequently asked questions and important tips about Mr. Mime raids in Pokémon GO for February 2021.
When do Mr. Mime Raids Begin and End in February 2021
Mr. Mime will begin appearing in three star raids in Pokémon GO on Saturday, February 20 at 9 am in your local time zone during the Pokémon Go Tour: Kanto event. He will only be found in these raids through the end of the day when Pokémon GO Fest: Kanto ends at 9 pm local time.
How Many Players are Needed
Considering Mr. Mime is a three star raid, this one shouldn’t be too hard for you to take down. Depending on what level you are and the counters you have, you should be able to easily take him down with only a couple players, but having more is never going to hurt.
What CP for 100% IVs for Mr. Mime
Mr. Mime will be encountered at 1205 CP to 1273 CP. The higher CP means it is 100% perfect in terms of IVs so you should do your best to catch it if you’re lucky enough to find one.
Can Mr. Mime be Shiny, How to Get Shiny Mr. Mime
Yes, shiny Mr. Mime is possible to catch in February 2021 in Pokémon GO during Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto, though shiny Mr. Mime has been available in the past as well in Europe. Your odds of catching one should be somewhere in the range of one in twenty, though Niantic likes to tweak this a lot without making any announcements. The more raids you win the better chances you have at a shiny Mr. Mime, so you will want to make sure to keep raiding until you finally find one.
