The June, July, and September season of Pokémon GO, titled Delightful Days, has now begun. This season will focus on the build-up and aftermath of the global Pokémon GO Fest 2025 mega event. For the first month of Delightful Days, Tier Five Raids will feature Tapu Bulu, Groudon, Kyogre, and Cobalion, with Shadow Raids featuring Regice on the weekends. There will also be a special week of Raids featuring the Titans: Regice, Regirock, Registeel, Regidrago, and Regieleki. Meanwhile, Mega Raids see the return of Mega Abomasnow, Mega Manectric, Mega Beedrill, and Mega Aggron. Today's raid guide for Pokémon GO players will help you assemble a team to take down Regirock, who will have a stint as the Tier Five Raid Boss. Let's get into it.
Top Regirock Counters
Pokebattler, which calculates all possible combinations of Pokémon and moves, lists the top ten Regirock counters as such:
- Mega Lucario: Force Palm, Aura Sphere
- Dusk Mane Necrozma: Metal Claw, Sunsteel Strike
- Primal Groudon: Mud Shot, Precipice Blades
- Primal Kyogre: Waterfall, Origin Pulse
- Mega Sceptile: Bullet Seed, Frenzy Plant
- Shadow Groudon: Mud Shot, Precipice Blades
- Shadow Metagross: Bullet Punch, Meteor Mash
- Mega Garchomp: Mud Shot, Earth Power
- Mega Swampert: Water Gun, Hydro Cannon
- Shadow Kyogre: Waterfall, Origin Pulse
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 Regirock with efficiency.
- Crowned Sword Zacian: Metal Claw, Iron Head
- Terrakion: Double Kick, Sacred Sword
- Therian Forme Landorus: Mud Shot, Sandsear Storm
- Lucario: Force Palm, Aura Sphere
- Keldeo: Low Kick, Sacred Sword
- Kartana: Razor Leaf, Leaf Blade
- Metagross: Bullet Punch, Meteor Mash
- Groudon: Mud Shot, Precipice Blades
- Dawn Wings Necrozma: Metal Claw, Moongeist Beam
- Hisuian Decidueye: Magical Leaf, Aura Sphere
How Many Trainers Are Needed?
Regirock can be defeated with three trainers… but just barely. 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 Legendary Pokémon is approximately one in 20. When looking for a Pokémon with the best stats, the 100% IV Regirock will have a CP of 1784 in normal weather conditions and 2230 in boosted conditions.
Happy raiding, fellow trainers! Be sure to check back on Bleeding Cool for daily updates on all things Pokémon GO.
