Pokémon GO: How to Get Turtonator

Trainers, Turtonator and Sableye are the stars of the Dark Flames event. Turtonator itself is available to encounter during the research for the event. It is a very strong Pokémon in the main game and the GO. This piece will inform players on how to get Turtonator in Pokémon GO.

Dark Flames Allows This Pokémon to be Encountered in Raids

During the Dark Flames event, trainers can find Turtonator in 3-star raids. It is recommended that trainers gather their most trusted friends for a raid party and plan out how to defeat this blast turtle. Turtonator is weak to Dragon, Rock, and Ground-type Pokémon.

In fact, if players have been taking part in community days, including the Axew one, they’ve already got a sound partner to take on the boss. Below, readers can find 1 recommended Pokémon from each type they can consider when facing this foe:

Haxorus:

As a Dragon-type Pokemon, Haxorus is one of the best options for players who stayed diligent with their community days. Axews fully evolved into Haxoruses would end up learning the move Breaking Swipe. This move not only does great damage but can also lower the raid boss’ attack. This would help keep one’s teammates in the fight longer.

Gigalith:

Similar to Axew, Roggenrola also had a community day in which any of them fully evolved into Gigalith before the event ended would end up learning Meteor Beam. This rock type move can deal plenty of damage. And Gigalith is a bulky rock type, allowing it to stay in the game longer.

Garchomp:

It’s good in the main series and it’s just as great here. Garchomp is a staple that will allow players to hold up to Turtonator. Players should make sure Garchomp is equipped with both a dragon and ground-type move. The best combo would be Dragon Tail and Earthquake to maximize damage output for both types.

Lucky Players Can Encounter Turtonator in Field Research Tasks

If players are lucky, they can also get a research task to encounter Turtonator without a raid. The task in particular is to win 3 raids. Once that’s done, the player should get a Turtonator encounter. Best play, go for the raids.

Conclusion

This is how one would get Turtonator in Pokémon GO. This is a solid Pokémon and deserves a spot on an Alola fan’s dream team. Whether it’s from the research task or from a raid, players should try to have as much fun as possible hunting this walking volcanic fortress. Best of luck, players.
