As mentioned, Night Scarf Umbreon is a pure Dark-type Pocket Monster. As a result, this Raid Boss is vulnerable to the following elemental typings:

• Fighting

This cat-like critter, thanks to its pure Dark elemental typing, is strong against the following types of monsters:

• Ghost
• Psychic

As a 3-star Dark-type raid boss, Night Scarf Umbreon will have an attack stat of 126 and a defense stat of 240. As stated above, it has access to moves like Snarl, Feint Attack, Foul Play, Psychic, Last Resort, and Dark Pulse.

It does have good defense though. So, if you don't have the right set of counters, you will have a hard time dealing damage to this monster. Even with a good defense stat, Night Scarf Umbreon will not be able to defend the Gym. As a result, you will be able to solo defeat Night Scarf Umbreon in Pokemon GO.
