The March, April, and May season of Pokémon GO, titled World of Wonders, continues. With the new slate of Raids announced for May, we now know how this season will close out. We will see Tapu Fini and Regirock return to Tier Five Raids, followed by the release of Ultra Beasts Blacephalon and Stakataka through Ultra Wormholes. In addition to that, we will see some older Megs return while Shadow Suicune gets its chance to shine in Shadow Raids during the weekend. Today's raid guide for Pokémon GO players will help you assemble a team to take down the Alolan Legendary Tapu Fini, who has returned to Tier Five Raids. Let's get into it.
Top Tapu Fini Counters
Pokebattler, which calculates all possible combinations of Pokémon and moves, lists the top ten Tapu Fini counters as such:
- Mega Sceptile: Bullet Seed, Frenzy Plant
- Kartana: Razor Leaf, Leaf Blade
- Mega Gengar: Lick, Sludge Bomb
- Mega Beedrill: Poison Jab, Sludge Bomb
- Xurkitree: Thunder Shock, Discharge
- Shadow Raikou: Thunder Shock, Wild Charge
- Shadow Electivire: Thunder Shock, Wild Charge
- Mega Manectric: Thunder Fang, Wild Charge
- Shadow Magnezone: Spark, Wild Charge
- Zekrom: Charge Beam, Fusion Bolt
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 Tapu Fini with efficiency.
- Sky Forme Shaymin: Magical Leaf, Grass Knot
- Therian Forme Thundrus: Volt Switch, Wildbolt Storm
- Zarude: Vine Whip, Power Whip
- Nihilego: Poison Jab, Sludge Bomb
- Raikou: Thunder Shock, Wild Charge
- Roserade: Poison Jab, Sludge Bomb
- Electivire: Thunder Shock, Wild Charge
- Magnezone: Spark, Wild Charge
- Tapu Bulu: Bullet Seed, Grass Knot
- Zapdos: Thunder Shock, Thunder Bolt
How Many Trainers Are Needed?
Tapu Fini can be defeated with three 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 Legendary Pokémon is approximately one in 20. When looking for a Pokémon with the best stats, the 100% IV Tapu Fini will have a CP of 1632 in normal weather conditions and 2041 in boosted conditions.
