There are many Pokémon out there, and to catch’ em all, you would need to participate in raids. As the whole Pokémon world is based on type counters, there are efficient attack parties for each type of raid. Here, we cover the best Pokémon in raids for each type and also the best and most efficient move/skillsets to use.
Best Pokémon and skillsets for Raids
When a Boss Pokémon takes over a gym, players can initiate a Raid in a group attempt to bring it down. Just like with gym battles, you'll have to choose six Pokémon to challenge the raid with and knowing which Pokémon and which skillset are best can greatly aid in your raiding.
