Today is the Johto Beasts Raid Hour in Pokémon GO for the second week in a row. That means that tonight, Wednesday, October 4, most Gyms in the game will pop Tier Five Raids that feature either the Water-type Suicune, the Fire-type Entei, or the Electric-type Raikou. All three of these Legendary Pokémon can be Shiny, so if you have yet to catch the entire trio as Shinies, take advantage of this Raid Hour before the rotation switches over to the Ultra Beast Guzzlord this week. You can take down Raids more quickly by knowing the top counters, so take a look at the list below for help building your teams.
