Knowing that the raid will only be available for an hour, a few tips can help you enjoy the event to the fullest. First of all, take care of plan the path to take for your raid group by choosing several arenas close to each other.

Where possible, form a group of many high level trainers whose teams are made up of Pokémon suitable for the current raid. In Dialga's case, Ground-type and Fighting-type Pokémon are the most effective.

When it comes to capturing the Legendary Pokémon, try to save time by using berries to increase your chances of catching when throwing pokeballs. Also make perfect throws with effect. Anyway, if you already own the Pokémon, the easiest way is to skip the capture step to go directly to the next raid with your group.

In the best case, you will be able to complete 10 Legendary Raids during Legendary Lunch Hour. Knowing that you have to wait 2 minutes in the lobby, that the fight will take at least 1 minute, and that it will take three minutes to move from one arena to another, it will be difficult to complete more than ten raids in one hour.
