How to defeat Regirock in Pokemon GO
Trainers who wish to beat the Regirock raid boss will need to take advantage of the type-effectiveness when battling it.
Being a Rock-type Pokemon, Regirock has a variety of weaknesses against other types in Pokemon GO. The Legendary is weak against the following types:
- Fighting
- Grass
- Ground
- Steel
- Water
Of course, players must be aware of Regirock's resistances in the mobile game. The Pokemon is resistant to Fire, Flying, Normal, and Poison-type moves used against it in battle.
Use one of the following Pokemon to effectively counter Regirock in raids:
Mega Blastoise: If a player is fortunate enough to have this Mega-evolved beast on their team, defeating Regirock won't take long. Use the move combination Water Gun and Hydro Cannon to benefit from the Legendary's weakness against Water-type attacks.
Metagross: This dual Psychic/Steel-type Pokemon is one of the most versatile creatures in the game. Trainers using Metagross against Regirock will want to be sure the Pokemon knows two Steel-type moves to inflict maximum damage.
Groudon: What better way is there to defeat a Legendary Pokemon in battle than to use another Legendary against it? Groudon is an excellent choice for this reason and because it takes advantage of Regirock's Ground-type weakness. The moves Mud Shot and Earthquake are great to use against the raid boss.
Conkeldurr: One of the best Fighting-types in Pokemon GO, Conkeldurr will match up well against Regirock in battle. If it knows the fast move Counter and the charged move Dynamic Punch, Regirock doesn't stand a chance.
Taking multiple Pokemon listed above into battle against the Legendary Rock-type is the best way to ensure a trainer victory. Additionally, this 5-star raid boss will go down much easier if a player enters the battle alongside a few of their friends.
