Team Rocket Sierra has a brand new team in Pokémon Go for April 2022. Team Rocket has been readily available in Pokémon Go for a few years now as enemies for players to battle. Defeating them gives trainers the chance to capture a Shadow Pokémon, a creature with all the light and love snuffed out of it. There is currently an increased presence of Team Rocket in the game. Trainers looking to defeat Sierra will need to bring along the best counters to beat her.

This item will pinpoint the location of any of the three Team Rocket Admins and occasionally Giovanni. To obtain one, the player will need to collect six Rocket Radar shards from defeating grunts.

Just approach the area, interact, and the battle will begin.
