Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos are some of the most popular legendary birds. This is also due to the fact that they are the oldest as they were introduced with the Gen I of the games. So when they got Galarian forms in Sword and Shield it was quite a big deal. The best part is you can even find them in Pokemon GO. So here is how you can catch them:
How to Catch Galarian Zapdos, Moltres, and Articuno in Pokemon GO
In order to have a chance at spawning these birds you will have to use your Daily Adventure Incense. The interesting feature that separates this incense from a regular one is that it has the ability to spawn unique Pokemon. So even if they might not show up in your nearby routes. With the help of this incense, they can spawn. So here is what you can do to increase your chances of spawning the Galarian birds:
- Walk while the Daily Adventure Incense is active. This is a key factor when using it, your movement will attract Pokemon toward you.
- You can try looking up the weather boosts near where you live and sync up the use of this incense with it to increase your chance of spawning them. The weather you are looking for is Windy.
Once a bird spawns here is what you do:
- Use Razz Berries: Not just any razz berry, you should use the golden ones.
- Use Ultra Ball: In case you have a Master ball then you could use that as well as it guarantees you the catch. However, Ultra balls are your next best bet when catching them.
- Make Curveball Throws: Throwing an excellent curveball when trying to catch one can also help increase the chances of you actually getting one.
Finally, it goes without saying but keep trying. You get Daily Adventure Incense once per day and you can use it for 15 minutes so if one bird flees, move on. Both figuratively and literally, if your incense is still active you may still encounter the same or another bird again.
That’s all on how you can catch the Legendary Galarian birds. I suggest you also check out our Pokemon GO guides for more.
