Kartana Raid Guide For Pokémon GO: Inbound Event

Defeat Kartana in Tier Five Raids using these counters during the Inbound from Ultra Space event leading up to Pokémon GO Fest 2024.

The June, July, and August season of Pokémon GO, titled Shared Skies, has begun. It now continues with a Pokémon GO Fest 2024-focused slate of Ultra Beasts. We will see Guzzlord, Nihilego, Celesteela, Kartana, Stakataka, Blacephalon, Buzzwole, Pheromosa, Xurkitree, Articuno, and Incarnate Forme Tornadus in Tier Five Raids, while Mega Swampert and Mega Aggron return to Mega Raids. In addition to that, we will see Shadow Entei get its chance to shine in Shadow Raids on the weekends. Today's raid guide for Pokémon GO players will help you assemble a team to take down Kartana, who will have a stint as the Tier Five Raid Boss. Let's get into it.

Top Kartana Counters

Pokebattler, which calculates all possible combinations of Pokémon and moves, lists the top ten Kartana counters as such:

• Mega Charizard Y: Fire Spin, Blast Burn
• Mega Blaziken: Fire Spin, Blast Burn
• Reshiram: Fire Fang, Fusion Flare
• Shadow Darmanitan: Fire Fang, Overheat
• Apex Shadow Ho-Oh: Incinerate, Sacred Fire+
• Shadow Chandelure: Fire Spin, Overheat
• Shadow Entei: Fire Fang, Overheat
• Mega Charizard X: Fire Spin, Blast Burn
• Shadow Moltres: Fire Spin, Overheat
• Shadow Charizard: Fire Spin, Blast Burn

It is recommended to power up your counters as much as possible, but creating that amount of strong Shadow Pokémon with their moves unlocked is a tall order for even the most practiced players. Here are ten additional non-Shadow and non-Mega counters that can help take down Kartana with efficiency.

• Heatran: Fire Spin, Magma Storm
• Blacephalon: Incinerate, Mystical Fire
• Apex Purified Ho-Oh: Incinerate, Sacred Fire+
• Volcarona: Fire Spin, Overheat
• Darmanitan: Fire Fang, Overheat
• Moltres: Fire Spin, Overheat
• Entei: Fire Fang, Overheat
• Chandelure: Fire Spin, Overheat
• Blaziken: Fire Spin, Blast Burn
• Incineroar: Fire Fang, Blast Burn

How Many Trainers Are Needed?

Kartana can be defeated with two trainers, but if you cannot guarantee the top counters with maxed-out CP and the best moves, your best bet is to make sure you have four or more players. Using the Circle Lock Technique to guarantee Great or Excellent throws, along with Golden Razz Berries, is the best way to catch Pokémon. If you get a Shiny, though, it is a guaranteed catch, so be sure to use a Pinap Berry.

Shiny Odds & 100% IVs

The Shiny rate for Tier Five Raid Pokémon is approximately one in 20. When looking for a Pokémon with the best stats, the 100% IV Kartana will have a CP of 2101 in normal weather conditions and 2626 in boosted conditions.

Happy raiding, fellow trainers! Be sure to check back on Bleeding Cool for daily updates on all things Pokémon GO.
