Top Terrakion Counters

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

  • Shadow Mewtwo: Confusion, Psystrike
  • Primal Kyogre: Waterfall, Origin Pulse
  • Mega Alakazam: Confusion, Psychic
  • Primal Groudon: Mud Shot, Precipice Blades
  • Mewtwo: Confusion, Psystrike
  • Mega Gardevoir: Confusion, Psychic
  • Mega Swampert: Water Gun, Hydro Cannon
  • Mega Garchomp: Mud Shot, Earth Power
  • Mega Latios: Zen Headbutt, Psychic
  • Mega Sceptile: Bullet Seed, Frenzy Plant

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 Terrakion with efficiency.

  • Terrakion: Double Kick, Sacred Sword
  • Hoopa Unbound: Confusion, Psychic
  • Keldeo: Low Kick, Sacred Sword
  • Lunala: Confusion, Psychic
  • Metagross: Bullet Punch, Meteor Mash
  • Kyogre: Waterfall, Origin Pulse
  • Kartana: Razor Leaf, Leaf Blade
  • Hoopa Confined: Confusion, Psychic
  • Zarude: Vine Whip, Power Whip
  • Conkeldurr: Counter, Dynamic Punch

How Many Trainers Are Needed?

Terrakion 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 three 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 Terrakion will have a CP of 2113 in normal weather conditions and 2641 in boosted conditions.

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