How do you catch Togedemaru in Pokémon GO?

Togedemaru can be caught in a few different ways. Notably, during the Test Your Mettle event, Togedemaru can be caught from Wild Encounters with high spawn rates during the event hours. If players participate during Test Your Mettle, they can also battle and catch Togedemaru in One-Star Raids. Since it is a low-level Raid, players will likely be able to complete the Raid alone or with only a small number of friends. Togedemaru will likely stick around in the wild after this event as well, so if players cannot find one during then they shouldn’t worry too much.
