Raikou, Entei, and Suicune Photo Safari in Pokémon Go explained
Raikou, Entei, and Suicune Photo Safari is a timed research quest available until 9 p.m. on Saturday February 26. It is also available to all players, so a Go Tour: Johto ticket is not required.
To complete this quest, you must hunt down Raikou, Entei, and Suicune in the wild. The time it takes varies between players, and to increase your chances of finding them, we recommend using Incense.
Once you find one of the legendary dogs, start an encounter with them and immediately take a snapshot of them.
We highly recommend taking the shot first, as the Legendary Dog will most likely run away if you don’t catch it with your first Poké Ball. If this happens and you didn’t take the shot, you’ll need to find that particular legendary.
After taking the snapshot, you’ll be guaranteed an encounter where you can catch that particular Legendary Dog.
It is possible to catch legendary wild-looking dogs; to increase your chances, use an Ultra Ball and a Golden Razz Berry or a Silver Pinap Berry.

How to get Raikou, Entei, and Suicune during Pokémon Go Tour: Johto
There are several ways to catch the three legendary dogs – Raikou, Entei, and Suicune – during the Pokémon Go Tour: Johto event.
The first is to complete the Raikou, Entei and Suicune Photo Safari – explained above – which, by taking a snapshot of each Legendary Dog in the wild, will give you a guaranteed caught encounter with each Pokémon.
Legendary Hounds also appear in five-star raids throughout the event. Don’t forget that even remote players can now raid with Remote Raid Passes. If you want some tips for battling these Legendary Pokemon, check out our guides to Raikou, Entei, and Suicune counters and weaknesses.
Finally, you may be lucky enough to catch one of the Legendary Hounds by encountering it in the wild.
Shiny forms of Raikou, Entei, and Suicune were all released before Go Tour: Johto, so even if you already have these Pokémon, this is a great opportunity to add another Shiny to your collection.
Good luck catching the Legendary Dogs on Go Tour: Johto!
