With the arrival of the fourth generation of Pokémon, it is also time to take on new Legendary Raid Bosses. The first creature that Niantic, The Pokémon Company International and Nintendo have released is their own Giratina, the legendary of type Ghost / Dragon very impressive looking.
The raid boss itself is not complicated to deal with, however, it must be said that it is necessary to have the right counter as the beast in question has a lot of hit points. As always, we recommend some basic requirements to better address it, namely:
- Manager level: 30 or more
- Pokémon level in the team: 30 or more
- Minimum number of players: 8
Being Giratina of the Ghost / Dragon type, the most suitable counters are in turn almost all of the Ghost and Dragon type, but let's see together what they are and which moves are appropriate for the battle.
- Dragonite: Codadrago & Outrage
- Rayquaza: Codadrago & Outrage
- Salamance: Dragon Tail & Meteor Dragon
- Mewtwo: Psycho Cut & Shadow Ball
- Latios: Dragospiro & Dragartigli
- Gengar: Shadow Claw & Shadow Ball
- Tyranitar: Bite & Crunch
- Banette: Shadow Claw & Shadow Ball
If you respect what is reported in this guide, you will be able to defeat the Giratina raid boss with confidence. Furthermore, if you face the raid with favorable weather conditions, that is with fog or wind, Giratina can be captured at level 25 instead of 20. Finally, remember that if in the group of coaches facing the raid there are some of your friends, you will get a attack boost and more Premierball with which to capture.
