Pokemon Go has a harder time preparing, but now trainers can fix it. In recent weeks, Team Rocket has been causing trouble by stealing PokeStops and using their Shadow Pokemon. Right now, players have the opportunity to fight against the leaders of Team Rocket and attack the boss who runs everything: Giovanni. Here is how you can find it.
How to find Giovanni in Pokemon Go
The first step in locating the evil leader of Pokemon Go's Team Rocket has to go through the Looming in the Shadows research project. All players should have access to it. We have a guide describing what you are going to need to do to complete all of the stages of the research project, which you can read here. To locate Giovanni, you will almost need to complete the project. The last step is to find him and rescue his captured ghost Pokemon, Articuno. Focusing on the special project is the best approach. Think of it as a winning stone for two birds.
Follow the steps in the research project and you will be tasked with locating Team Rocket grunts on PokeStops. They will carry mysterious components on them. You'll need this to craft a Rocket Radar, which will lead you to locate one of the three Team Rocket leaders hiding in a nearby hideout. No, none of them are Giovanni, but they are essential to find him. You must find and defeat these leaders. By taking them they will allow players to locate him after Professor Willow thinks you are ready to do so.
The players will have to eliminate each of the three leaders of Team Rocket. To do this, players must create three different rocket radars, which means locating up to 18 mysterious components. However, players can work with a friend to use their rocket radar to find a hiding place. If you and a few friends are planning to do this together, you can reduce the time it takes to locate all three of them and complete the special research project.
Either way, this process might take a bit of time, but after doing it once, players should take notice. The special project does not materialize, take your time and do not rush.
After defeating the three leaders, players will have access to a Super Rocket radar. This item will lead players directly to Giovanni, where they'll need the best Pokemon they have in their party to take him down. However, given that you've fought several grunts from Team Rocket and various leaders, a handful of grunts could be disguised as Giovanni. There is no clear indication to tell the difference, so coaches need to be on their guard.
When you defeat Giovanni, good luck trying to capture the legendary Articuno bird. They will be grateful that you brought them back to light.
