One-star raids

Pikachu dressed as a footballer will take over one-star raids between 10 am GMT+7 on August 4, 2025, and 8 pm GMT+9 on August 9, 2025. The varied timezones are based on the fact that Indonesia has three time zones, and the creature will be available to trainers worldwide (via remote raids) as soon as the event goes live in the easternmost part of the country. Following the same logic, you can keep joining these raids till the event gets over in the westernmost time zone.

Pikachu in Indonesian Football Jersey in Pokemon GO is a mono-Electric-type. Therefore, it is weak to Ground-type attacks. As a one-star raid boss with 3,277 CP, the critter can easily be taken down by solo trainers.

These are some of the best Remote Raid apps that Pokemon GO players outside Indonesia should know about.

Research encounters

Trainers playing in Indonesia are entitled to receive a Timed Research quest, themed Field Research tasks, and a Collection Challenge, all of which lead to encounters with Football Jersey-wearing Pikachu.
