How to Get Mega Latias

You cannot catch Latias in its mega evolved form from the raid. The mega raid boss is always catchable in its base form and as such, the CP ranges are for a regular Latias.

Latias can be caught with the following CP values:

  • 1921– 2006 CP no weather boost
  • 2402 – 2507 CP boosted by Windy weather boost

In order to get Mega Latias you will need 300 Mega Energy for the initial evolution. Once you Mega Evolve a Pokémon for the first time, Mega Energy will no longer be required for that specific Pokémon to Mega Evolve again. Instead, the Pokémon will become exhausted after its Mega Evolution and need to rest before being Mega Evolved again. In other words, there is now a cooldown period after you Mega Evolve a Pokémon. You can level up your Mega Pokémon in order to decrease this cooldown period.

Latias Shiny

Like all Mega Raid Bosses, you can catch the shiny version of Latias from a raid.
