⚔️ Raids - Raids are no monkey business, at least for Grookey who's too underpowered to be good in PvE 🐒
🛡️ Gyms - Pokémon GO Gyms are just not meant for first-stage starters
🔮 Dynamax Grookey will be up for grabs from one-star Max Battles. You’ll need 250 MP to take on Grookey, and the battle will also reward you with 10,000 XP. Beating any 1-Star Max Battle is simple, so no sweat! 😅
