Tonight Is Ho-Oh Raid Hour #1 In Pokémon GO: March 2023
Tonight is Ho-Oh Raid Hour #1 in Pokémon GO and you can use these tips and tricks to make the most out of the night's feature.
Tonight, March 8th, 2023, is Ho-Oh Raid Hour in Pokémon GO. It is the first of two Raid Hours featuring this Fire/Flying-type Legendary Bird of Johto, which breaks from the pattern we've seen this year so far of week-long raid rotations. During this Raid Hour, most Gyms in Pokémon GO will be taken over by Tier Five raids featuring this Legendary Pokémon.
Here are some tips for Ho-Oh Raid Hour:
- Type weakness: Ho-Oh is a Fire/Flying-type which means it is doubly weak to Rock-types. Using Rock-types will allow you to complete this raid with fewer Trainers. Only two Trainers will be needed if you use the best counters with the best moves.
- Best Mega to evolve: Mega Aerodactyl is the overall top counter to use against Ho-Oh. The second-best is Primal Kyogre but Primal Kyogre does not fall in the overall top ten counters to use.
- Best Shadow to use: The top Shadows to use are Shadow Tyranitar as the overall fourth-best counter followed by Shadow Aggron, Shadow Aerodactyl, Shadow Omastar, and Shadow Golem.
These are the Pokémon that will appear in Tier Five raids in Pokémon GO this March 2023:
- March 8th – March 21st: Ho-Oh
