A new season titled World of Wonders has begun in Pokémon GO. This Poipole-focused season is bringing back Alolan Legendaries and Ultra Beasts in Raids. This month, we have the return of the Tapu Koko kicking off the March 2024 content. Today's raid guide for Pokémon GO players will help you assemble a team to take down Tapu Koko in Tier Five Raids. Let's get into it.
Top Tapu Koko Counters
Pokebattler, which calculates all possible combinations of Pokémon and moves, lists the top ten Tapu Koko counters as such:
- Primal Groudon: Mud Shot, Precipice Blades
- Shadow Excadrill: Mud-Slap, Scorching Sands
- Mega Garchomp: Mud Shot, Earth Power
- Mega Gengar: Lick, Sludge Bomb
- Shadow Garchomp: Mud Shot, Earth Power
- Shadow Rhyperior: Mud-Slap, Earthquake
- Shadow Mamoswine: Mud-Slap, High Horsepower
- Groudon: Mud Shot, Precipice Blades
- Therian Forme Landorus: Mud Shot, Sandsear Storm
- Nihilego: Poison Jab, Sludge Bomb
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 Koko with efficiency.
- Excadrill: Mud-Slap, Scorching Sands
- Rhyperior: Mud-Slap, Earthquake
- Mamoswine: Mud-Slap, High Horsepower
- Garchomp: Mud Shot, Earth Power
- Incarnate Forme Landorus: Mud Shot, Earth Power
- Rhydon: Mud-Slap, Earthquake
- Roserade: Poison Jab, Sludge Bomb
- Gengar: Lick, Sludge Bomb
- Overqwil: Poison Jab, Sludge Bomb
- Krookodile: Mud-Slap, Earthquake
How Many Trainers Are Needed?
Tapu Koko 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 Legendary Pokémon is approximately one in 20. When looking for a Pokémon with the best stats, the 100% IV Tapu Koko will have a CP of 1810 in normal weather conditions and 2263 in boosted conditions.
