Battle Raid fans have another February Raid Hour evening coming toPokemon GOon Wednesday that will offer them the chance to wage battle against a popular mythical Pokemon with some shiny potential.Deoxys (this time in Defense forme)will be in the February 23 Raid Hour spotlight, so players should start preparing for battle now.

Deoxys (Defense Forme) remains a powerful foe in PoGO, so trainers will need to take a bit of time to prepare a solid roster of counters for this fight. The Raid Boss is a Psychic type, which means that players will want to focus on Ghost-, Dark-, andBug-type countersto take advantage of the enemy’s biggest weaknesses. Luckily, many of the best choices have been popular for other Battle Raid bosses, so hopefully many players will already have some of these Pokemon powered up and ready to drop into their updated roster…
Best Deoxys Normal Forme Counters
Trainers will want to keep in mind that they don’t need a full roster of these top tier counters in order to participate in the Battle Raid and earn that encounter reward. The most important thing is to head into the battle with a solid group (five or more players) and focus on using any Pokemon that lineup with the boss’s weaknesses. It’s definitely wise to use someCandy, TMs, and Stardust ahead of timeto power up a few of the best available options to make the Battle Raid go a little more smoothly for everyone involved.
In the week ahead, we should learn more about what other events will be arriving during thefinal days of the Season of Heritage. At this point there still have not been any hints about the next season’s theme or events. Be sure to check back in the near future for morePokemon GOstrategy guides, news, and updates. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!
