The holiday season is in full swing, but that doesn't mean you have to miss out on the excitement in Pokémon Go. With Mega Gallade making its debut in Mega Raids this season, the upcoming Raid Day on January 11th is an event you won't want to miss. Who knows? You might even encounter a Shiny Gallade if luck is on your side.

The latest update to Pokémon Go brings a host of event bonuses that you can take advantage of. From January 10th to the 11th, the limit for the Remote Raid Pass will be increased, and you can collect up to five additional free Raid Passes from Gym Photo Discs. Plus, there's an enhanced chance to encounter Shiny Gallade during Mega Raids.

If you're looking to enhance your experience even further and have a bit of extra cash, consider purchasing the Event Ticket for $5. This ticket grants you eight additional Raid Passes from Gym Photo Discs, a higher chance of obtaining Rare Candy XL from Raid Battles, 50% more XP, and 2× Stardust from Raid Battles.

For those eager to maximize their Raid Day experience, the Pokémon Go Web Store is offering a Mega Gallade Raid Day Ultra Ticket Box for $4.99 or its local equivalent.

To join in on the fun, you can download Pokémon Go for free on the App Store and Google Play, with in-app purchases available.
