How do you catch Tapu Lele in Pokémon Go?

The legendary guardian Pokémon on Pokémon Sun and Moon's Akala Island, Tapu Lele, is making its debut in five-star raids. To catch this Pokémon, players will need to defeat it in a raid battle and then successfully use Premier Poké Balls to catch the legendary.

The Pokémon encounter for Tapu Lele is much like any other legendary raid encounter. Once defeated, players have the opportunity to catch the Pokémon though their flee rate is higher than normal encounters. The best way to ensure a successful capture is by using Golden Razz Berries before throwing each Poké Ball to increase the capture rate.

Tapu Lele is a Psychic and Fairy-type Pokémon. This means that players have the best chance of beating it when using Pokémon that have Ghost, Steel, and Poison-type moves. There are many options in this area, and the battle chances can be raised even higher by fighting the Pokémon with a group of other Pokémon Go players.
