Therian Tornadus, Therian Thundurus, and Therian Landorus are returning to Pokemon GO 5-star raids in January 2024, and many trainers might be wondering how to get them. The Therian forms of the Forces of Nature group were released in Niantic's mobile game in 2021. Being Legendary Pokemon, they are coveted collection items and forces to be reckoned with in battles.
This article will discuss how you can get your hands on Therian Tornadus, Therian Thundurus, and Therian Landorus in Pokemon GO and whether it is possible to get their shiny forms.

At the outset, you must know that Shiny Therian Tornadus, Shiny Therian Thundurus, and Shiny Therian Landorus are available in Niantic's mobile game. There are two ways to get them.
The first is by defeating the critters in 5-star raids and hoping the bonus encounter is a shiny one. In this case, the catch is guaranteed, as long as you don't stray too far away from the Gym where the raid took place.
Alternatively, you may also catch Shiny Therian Tornadus, Shiny Therian Thundurus, and Shiny Therian Landorus as GO Battle League rewards after reaching level 20. This catch is also guaranteed since you can't play another set of battles before successfully catching the critter.

Tips and tricks to defeat Therian Tornadus, Therian Thundurus, and Therian Landorus in Pokemon GO
Each team member must be maxed out using Pokemon GO Candy XL for any chance of taking down the raid boss before the timer runs out if you are going in with the minimum required number of trainers.
Additionally, try dodging some Charged Attacks to reduce incoming damage. You should also carry enough Max Revives so you don't waste precious time reviving and healing your team members. Being a part of the same Party will also give you and your partners an additional damage boost, which can be helpful in taking down this raid boss.
