Team GO Rocket is a villainous organization introduced in Pokémon GO. The Player can battle their grunts who hide in PokéStops and fly in Hot Air Balloons.

History[]

Team Go Rocket's grunts first appeared in the game on July 22, 2019, invading PokéStops for 24 hours with Shadow Pokémon.

After that was stopped suddenly, they reappeared 3 days later and more frequently, along with a special field research quest.

As a publicity stunt by Niantic, on July 27, 2019, they invaded most of N York's PokéStops and hacked the game's social media, sharing information about themselves and Giovanni's ambitions.

The next day, they claimed the New York invasion was a decoy and invaded every Pokéstop from 4-5 pm EST.

They extended their roster several times.
