About Super Mega Raids
Super Mega Raid battles are more difficult than standard Mega Raid battles and are designed for coordinated groups of Trainers. These battles are best attempted with several Trainers, especially if each player has at least one Mega-Evolved Pokémon in their battle party.
Defeating a Super Mega Raid will reward Trainers with more rewards than a standard Mega Raid, including more Mega Energy.
Super Mega Raids may only appear at certain Gyms. Trainers can use the official Pokémon GO map or Campfire to find upcoming and active Super Mega Raid battles nearby, and coordinate with local communities ahead of time.
