Pokemon GO 's Season of Discovery officially kicks off today, allowing trainers to face off against new Raid bosses, likewise as an update to Pokemon that can be found in the wild. This didn't do much to alter the Team GO Rocket roster of Pokemon since the Luminous Legends Y event, though newerPokemon G O trainers will definitely desire to organize their roster to properly set upwards counters.

Arlo is undoubtedly one of the Squad Get Rocket leaders to face off confronting. As earlier, he'south guaranteed to outset off with one Pokemon, and his second and third-round choices are where things can switch up a fleck. Specifically, he'll ever beginning with Venonat as his beginning Pokemon, with the 2d circular between Crobat, Ursaring, or Manectric, and the third round betwixt Vileplume, Magnezone, or Scizor.

Round ane - Venonat

Since Arlo's first Pokemon is Venonat, a dual Bug and Poison-type, trainers volition already be aware of its natural weakness to Fire, Flying, Stone, and Psychic-type moves. Contrarily, be careful to avoid using Bug, Poison, Fairy, Fighting, and Grass-type moves if possible as Venonat resists damage from those.

Some good recommendations to tackle information technology head-on include:

  • Blaziken - Burn down Spin & Overheat
  • Moltres - Fly Attack & Sky Set on
  • Gardevoir - Confusion & Synchronoise
  • Mewtwo - Confusion & Psychic
  • Rampardos - Zen Headbutt & Tock Slide

Circular 2 - Crobat, Ursaring, or Manectric

Pokemon Crobat

At this bespeak, Arlo is bound to do annihilation so be prepared. In the instance of Crobat, a dual Poison, and Flight-blazon Pokemon, the best counters are Ice, Rock, Psychic, and Electric-type moves. On the other mitt, information technology resists damage from Basis, Poison, Fairy, Fighting, Grass, and Issues-blazon moves. This is a great match-up if coming correct off of Venonat, as both Pokemon share similar counters:

  • Mewtwo - Confusion & Psychic
  • Rampardos - Zen Headbutt & Tock Slide
  • Luxray - Spark & Wild Charge
  • Glaceon - Frost Breath & Barrage
  • Weavile - Snarl & Barrage

Another Pokemon that Arlo tin throw out at Pokemon Go trainers is Ursaring. Frequent challengers of Team Get Rocket probably take a line-up in mind from the previous month, but, as a refresher, Ursaring is a Normal-type Pokemon. That means information technology is weak simply to Fighting-blazon moves but only resists Ghost-blazon moves. Some counters include:

  • Machamp - Counter & Dynamic Punch
  • Landorus (Therian) - Extrasensory & Superpower
  • Pangoro - Depression Kicking & Close Combat
  • Yveltal - Snarl & Focus Blast
  • Thundurus (Therian) - Thunder Shock & Focus Blast

The final selection of the iii could easily fall to Manectric, a pure Electric-blazon, significant it's vulnerable merely to Footing-type moves. However, it resists Steel, Electrical, and Flying-blazon moves, making for a pretty challenging second-circular choice. Every bit long as Pokemon GO trainers continue a Basis-blazon Pokemon or a Pokemon with Ground-type moves, this won't be too difficult. Some skilful Pokemon counters include:

  • Landorus (Therian) - Mud Shot & Convulsion
  • Excadrill - Mud-Slap & Earthquake
  • Groudon - Mud Shot & Convulsion
  • Garchomp - Mud Shot & Earthquake
  • Landorus (Incarnate) - Mud Shot & Globe Ability

Round 3 - Vileplune, Magnezone, or Scizor

Pokemon Vileplume

From Arlo's previous line-upwards comes the dual Grass and Poisonous substance-blazon Pokemon Vileplume. Its typing makes it weak to Fire, Flight, Water ice, and Psychic-type moves, while resisting Fighting, Water, Electric, Fairy, and Grass-blazon moves. Trainers have undoubtedly noticed Arlo's trend for using Pokemon that are weak to Fire-blazon moves, meaning most Fire-type users are more than than prepared to counter all of them. In the case of specific counters, those include:

  • Mewtwo - Confusion & Psychic
  • Blaziken - Fire Spin & Overheat
  • Darmanitan (Galarian Standard) - Ice Fang & Avalanche
  • Tornadus (Therian) - Gust & Hurricane
  • Deoxys (Attack) - Zen Headbutt & Psycho Boost

Magnezone is another choice that Arlo brings back from before. This Pokemon is a dual Electric and Steel-blazon Pokemon that is weak to Basis, Fire, and Fighting-type moves. However, it comes with a crazy number of resistances - Dragon, Water ice, Psychic, Electric, Normal, Grass, Bug, Rock, Fairy, Steel, Toxicant, and Flying-type moves, to be exact.

Magnezone tin absolutely exist a trouble for new and unprepared Pokemon Become trainers, though keep in mind that Burn-types are the nigh reliable. The Ground-type choices used against Manetric also serve as great choices here:

  • Landorus (Therian) - Mud Shot & Convulsion
  • Excadrill - Mud-Slap & Earthquake
  • Groudon - Mud Shot & Earthquake
  • Blaziken - Fire Spin & Overheat
  • Landorus (Incarnate) - Mud Shot & World Power
Pokemon Best Dual Types Bug/Steel

Of course, the final choice for Arlo's third Pokemon could ever fall to the daunting Scizor. This Pokemon is a dual Problems and Steel-type, making it weak only to Fire-type moves. As for resistances, Scizor rivals Magnezone, resisting harm from Dragon, Ice, Psychic, Normal, Bug, Steel, Fairy, Grass, and Poison-type moves.

In combination with Scizor's loftier assault power, unprepared Pokemon GO trainers tin find themselves team wiped past the powerful Pokemon. As land before, Fire-type Pokemon are the way to go, especially if there's a chance that Scizor might show upward. Some choices include:

  • Blaziken - Fire Spin & Overheat
  • Moltres - Fire Spin & Burn down Blast
  • Flareon - Burn Spin & Flamethrower
  • Charizard - Fire Spin & Overheat
  • Arcanine - Fire Fang & Flamethrower
