Get Regigigas without paying?
The special, paid ticket allows you to get the Legendary Pokémon early, as well as other in-game bonuses! But if you don’t want to spend a single cent, know that Regigigas will be making its debut in EX Raids starting in November. This means doing a lot of Raids in the gyms around you, in order to maximize your chances of getting an EX Raid invitation.
