Are Galarian Pokémon Rare In Pokémon Go? (What Is The Rarest Galarian Bird In Pokémon Go?)
As a Pokémon Go enthusiast, encountering a Galarian Legendary Bird is thrilling 🥳. Many players look forward to having an encounter but have had none yet, making them wonder how rare the Galarian Birds are in Pokémon Go.
I have come across a couple of Galarian Legendary Birds, and after hundreds of attempts to catch one, I finally caught a handful 💃.
So, please continue reading to learn more about the Galarian Legendary Birds and how rare they are.
What is the rarest Galarian bird in Pokémon Go?
The most challenging birds to see and catch are the Galarian Moltres, Galarian Articuno, and the Galarian Zapdos.
These birds are rare because they have a 90% flee rate and a 0.3% base catch rate. You can increase your chances of catching one by making curveball throws, using a Razz Berry, or using the circle lock technique to have an excellent throw.
But, because the Galarian Legendary Birds’ catch rate is low, it is advised that you use a Master Ball to catch them.
Which Galarian bird is catchable in Pokémon Go?
In my quest, I realized you could catch any Galarian Legendary birds, the Galarian Moltres, Galarian Articuno, and the Galarian Zapdos. To catch them, you need to use the Daily Adventure Incense.
This free feature can only be used for 15 minutes but sometimes goes up to 45 minutes daily. If you are lucky, the Galarian Legendary birds will appear within the 15-minute window, or you will have to wait till the next day to attempt a catch 😔.
How do you catch Galarian Birds in Pokémon Go?
Considering that seeing a Galarian Bird is a hustle let alone catching one due to its high flee rate, there are tips and tricks to catching one.
According to some Pokémon players, if you throw your Poke ball or Master Ball, the game often counts them as bad throws.
This will increase your catch rate and reward you as the game rewards bad players. Many players have recently tried this trick and reported that it works 🤯.
This trick has caused a lot of stir around the Pokémon world having a lot of players testing it online and have called it a glitch.
As the testimonials have said, this trick increases your catch rate, but the game considers you a bad thrower.
How do you check if Galarian Birds have Perfect IVs?

How the Galarian Birds do spawns work?
Galarian Legendary Birds have a 0.1% chance for spawning, meaning the more you spawn, the higher your chances of seeing a Galarian Bird.
Every 30 seconds, the game calculates the distance traveled to spawn a Pokémon. It is advised to always travel in a straight line while moving briskly to increase the chances of spawning.
I realized that weather also increases the spawn chance to catch the Galarian Birds. The Galarian Moltres’ perfect weather is Windy and foggy; for Galarian Articuno, it is just Windy; for the Galarian Zapdos, it is Windy and cloudy.
