How to beat the Pokemon GO Arlo team in Pokemon GO
Lead with the Fire-type creature to counter Shadow Skorupi. Try to make sure to use at least two Charged Attacks to do away with Sierra's shields. Depending on what she brings in next, you should keep or switch your Pokemon.
If Sierra sends out Ferrothorn, stick around with the Fire-type. If she sends Shadow Milotic, its time for your Electric-type counter to shine. This can also take care of the Shadow Ninetales. Once you have taken down the second creature, switch into your Ground-type to finish off Sierra's third pick.
