Mega Slowbro will be joining the roster in Pokemon Go. This guide will show players the best raid counters against this Pokemon. Mega Evolution was added to the Pokemon series with the release of Pokemon X and Y. With the sixth generation, only a small pool of Pokemon received Mega Evolutions. Fan favorites like Mewtwo, Lucario, Blaziken, and Gardevoir all received Mega Evolutions. This temporary evolution acts at the Pokemon’s final stage and brings out their true power. With the release of Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, more Mega Evolutions were added. While the mainline series seems to have abandoned the mechanic since no new Mega Evolutions have been added in generations, Pokemon Go continues to support them by adding them into the game. Mega Slowbro will soon be making its Pokemon Go debut. This guide will show players the best counters to bring along against this Pokemon.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY

Mega Slowbro will be added to Pokemon Go starting on June 8th at 10 am local time. This is part of the “A Very Slow Discovery Event” where Slowpoke and its entire family line is at the center of attention. Players will also be able to find a Galarian Slowpoke for the very first time. This event will come to a close on June 13th, leaving players only 5 days to do everything they can to capture all of the Slowpoke line. Here are the best raid counters for Mega Slowbro.

The Best Mega Slowbro Raid Counters in Pokemon Go

Since this is a Mega Raid, some of the more challenging battles in the game, players will want a group of at least 5 other players to be involved before jumping into battle. Anything less might not be possible to complete. Here are the best Pokemon to bring along to counter Mega Slowbro.

  • Mega Gyarados: Bite and Crunch
  • Zekrom: Charge Beam and Wild Charge
  • Mega Houndoom: Snarl and Foul Play
  • Mega Manectric: Snarl and Wild Charge
  • Darkrai: Snarl and Shadow Ball
  • Origin Giratina: Shadow Claw and Shadow Ball

If players don’t have any of these Pokemon, bringing along a Pokemon with Grass, Electric, Ghost, Dark, and Bug-type moves will make this battle much easier. Players won’t be able to capture Megas Slowbro directly but they can earn Mega Energy to evolve it for a short period of time. Players should wait to evolve it until there’s an event where players will be battling a ton. Add this to your Mega collection.

Pokemon Go is available now on iOS and Android.
