The latest Pokemon GO Adventures Abound season brings excitement to trainers with the return of three legendary Pokemon in Raid Battles and Raid Hours. From September 23 to October 6, 2023, players will have the opportunity to encounter Raikou, Entei, and Suicune as 5-star raid bosses. These Electric, Fire, and Water-type legendaries are highly sought after for both PvP and PvE battles.
During this event, trainers also have a chance to encounter the Shiny variants of these legendary Pokemon. To obtain them, players must first defeat them in Raid Battles. By strategizing and gathering a group of friends with the best possible counters, trainers can take down Raikou, Entei, and Suicune and potentially find their Shiny forms.
Let’s take a closer look at each legendary Pokemon and their weaknesses. Raikou is weak to Ground-type moves and resists Electric, Flying, and Steel-type moves. With its impressive attack stat and high combat power, Raikou is a formidable addition to any battle roster.
To defeat Raikou, trainers can use a team of powerful Ground-type counters such as Mamoswine, Krookodile, Rhyperior, Garchomp, Mega Swampert, and more. Mega Evolved Pokemon can also be utilized to strengthen the team against this legendary powerhouse.
Similarly, Entei is weak to Ground, Rock, and Water-type moves, while resisting Bug, Fairy, Fire, Grass, Steel, and Ice-type moves. Trainers can use Rampardos, Greninja, Rhyperior, Garchomp, Mega Swampert, and Mega Blastoise as their best counters to take down Entei.
Lastly, Suicune resists Water, Steel, Ice, and Fire-type moves, but is vulnerable to Electric and Grass-type attacks. Electivire, Magnezone, Roserade, Mega Manectric, Mega Venusaur, and Shadow Magnezone are excellent choices to counter Suicune in battle.
Remember, the hosting raid and weather effects can significantly boost these legendary Pokemon’s combat power. So be prepared and gather your team of counters to have the best chance of defeating them.
Don’t miss out on this fantastic raid event in Pokemon GO. Go out and catch these powerful Legendary Pokemon and seek their elusive Shiny forms!
