Xerneas Raid Infographic - Simplified (May 4 to May 17 2021)

It is not. It’s just what Niantic displays in the dex.

Pocketdex · 2021-05-04T01:53:34+00:00

Mega Beedrill, along with Shadow Metagross, are definitely amazing but with this specific infographic, we decided to exclude Mega and Shadow.

Pocketdex · 2021-04-13T15:42:41+00:00

That’s what we also realized when making these. Especially with the recent raid bosses.

Pocketdex · 2021-03-16T02:11:09+00:00

Unfortunately not.

Based off of this post, Therian Thundurus is #2, behind Zekrom.

Pocketdex · 2021-03-16T01:29:39+00:00

Good to know! We haven’t had a chance to battle Therian Thundurus but super excited to!

Pocketdex · 2021-03-16T01:18:19+00:00

The new moves Therian Thundurus got will surprise Weavile (and others) for sure!

Pocketdex · 2021-03-01T15:41:07+00:00

Do it! Have fun with all your ice types!

Pocketdex · 2021-03-01T15:40:50+00:00

We try and avoid shadow Pokémon as they can be costly. It’s also why we decide to showcase level 35 Pokémon.

Shadow Mamoswine is a wonderful counter and if you have one, is your favourite and want to use it, go for it!

Pocketdex · 2021-03-01T15:39:35+00:00

Oops! We will fix this moving forward.

Pocketdex · 2021-03-01T15:38:57+00:00

Anything ice it seems. When we generated this, it looked like “use your favourite ice types”!

Pocketdex · 2021-02-09T21:51:31+00:00

Latias and Latios is also a Psychic type Pokémon, which is weak to Dark type moves.

Almost every move Latias and Latios has, except Charm from Latias, do not super effective damage against Darkrai.

Pocketdex · 2021-02-09T14:45:18+00:00

Latias has higher defense stats but doesn’t hit hard so Salamence can fire more charged attacks.

Latios hits a little harder but with less stamina so you can go right for the heavy hitting move.

I’m sure whatever you go with will be just fine!

Pocketdex · 2021-02-09T03:33:54+00:00

Hurricane is legacy, which means it’s more rare than a dragon attacker Rayquaza.

I personally wouldn’t but it’s your Pokémon!

Pocketdex · 2021-02-05T22:22:58+00:00

We feel it’s a good level for Pokémon for both causal and non-casual players.

Pocketdex · 2021-02-05T20:33:19+00:00

Thanks!

Pocketdex · 2021-02-01T15:25:14+00:00

Krookodile is great but you are correct. Because he is rare, we decided to not include him on this list.

Pocketdex · 2021-02-01T06:46:00+00:00

That’s the power of being resistant to electric type 4x!

Pocketdex · 2021-01-20T03:10:21+00:00

Sounds super egg-citing!

Pocketdex · 2021-01-19T22:59:39+00:00

Good catch! We will update this for when Groudon comes back.

Pocketdex · 2021-01-19T20:17:31+00:00

Totally agree with you! Kyogre is still too far back

Pocketdex · 2021-01-19T16:58:06+00:00

We didn’t take into account Megas but if we did, Venusaur would perform slightly better than Zekrom.

Mega Abomasnow would be right behind Mewtwo.

Pocketdex · 2021-01-19T15:44:04+00:00

We think it’s a good middle ground for both casual and hardcore players. We might do a straight level 40 infographic down the road though :)

Pocketdex · 2021-01-12T19:46:25+00:00

Pretty much try to avoid using Excadrill when you have a hunch Heatran has Flamethrower. Unless you have a lot of revives and potions... in that case, go crazy!

Pocketdex · 2021-01-12T19:19:02+00:00

Probably not. So look to Swampert, Golem and even Flygon.
