Trainers, Arlo’s Shadow Pokemon lineup has changed, and Arlo now uses new Shadow Pokemon.
Arlo, Cliff, Sierra, and Giovanni are now using different Shadow Pokemon Pokemon as part of the Team Go Rocket takeover event. This event is a limited-time event, and during the event window, Team Go Rocket will appear more often from PokeStops and in balloons, and you can encounter new Shiny Shadow Pokemon. This event also offers a new Special Research story From the Shadows, so if you want to get more Mysterious Components, and Rocket Radaras, we suggest completing it.
Now, let’s take a look at how to beat Arlo in Pokemon Go.
