Can You Get a Regular Redidrago in Pokemon GO?

Getting a Redidrago that is not shiny is certainly possible in Pokemon GO. You can get your opportunity to catch him in Elite Raids, a more difficult version of Raid Battles. Elite Raids will appear from special Raid Eggs that take 24 hours and then you will be face-to-face with a Raid Boss for 30 minutes.

Redidrago will hatch on March 11 at 11 AM, 2 PM, and 5 PM your local time.

Keep in mind that Elite Raid Bosses, like Redidrago, can only be battled in person and can’t be fought by using Remote Raid Passes. He is a tough enemy to combat so make sure you’re 100% focused and undistracted before this battle.
