Registeel is a Steel-type Pokemon. As a result, this Pocket Monster is vulnerable to the following elemental typings:

• Fire (160% increased damage)
• Fighting (160% increased damage)
• Ground (160% increased damage)

The creature is resistant to the following typings:

• Rock
• Fairy
• Ice

As a 5-star raid boss, Registeel does not have the stats that you would expect one to have. It has 143 Attack and 285 Defense. Not only does it lack the ability to hit hard, but it also does not have the bulk to withstand hits coming from enemy attackers.

Registeel does have a nice set of moves with hard hitters like Flash Cannon and Focus Blast. However, its low attack stat does not do justice to its moveset.

This means you should not have issues if you want to solo defeat Registeel in Pokemon GO.
