Now, when black rattata pokemon go complete a badges for catching certain types of Pokemon you get a catch bonus. Catch bonuses can help you snag rare Pokemon. For example, if you get the gold Bird Keeper achievement, you'll get a +3 flying-type catch bonus. This means you'll be more likely to catch a Charizard, Aerodactyl or a Farfetch'd. Gaining achievement levels Once you gain an achievement, it isn't over. All achievement badges have various levels. An icon will pop up above the Pokemon that will display its type as soon as you start to battle and disappears after a few seconds. Type icons can be found above the Pokemon you're trying to capture. For example, if the icon is surrounded with a silver circle, that means you have gotten your silver achievement level, but haven't reached your gold, yet. No ring around your icon means that you haven't completed any of the levels. What about Pokemon that are two different types. If a Pokemon has more than one type, there will be more than one icon displayed over it. Your bonus will be the average of your bonuses for each type.
