Most difficult dog to beat

Hi,
Which dog is the most difficult to beat?
What do you think?
If it follows the 'same rules' that the birds, then it might be Suicune, Raikou, Entei (from + to - difficult)

Thanks

No one really knows until next month, when they switch between regions.

I think suicune, though dependent on its hidden power.

The other two only have STAB moves so it's easier to counter as you only need to worry about one move type, and your moves will probably be super effective too e.g rock or water vs Entei, ground vs Raikou.

But for Suicune it's quick move can somewhat counter its counters. For example Extrasensory is super effective against poison, which a few grass types have, or if it gets a lucky hidden power.

Exeggutor will probably be the go-to counter as it resists Extrasensory but Suicune could get bug or fire hidden power, and dodging quick moves isn't really worth it in raids in my opinion.

Entei here so far, so just speculation, but I suspect Suicune is potentially going to throw a few players off their game. In my experience, people have been known to confuse Water and Ice, especially coming off Articuno. Fully expecting people to try and fight it with Fire and Rock types.

The increased bulk should mean more drawn out battles with greater possibility of timing out on smaller teams or with inexperienced players.

I have to wait until next month when raikou and entei are released in my region before I can jump into conclusion, but for now I've caught 12 out of 26 suicune, and luckily 2 of them have perfect IVs.

Suicune is more difficult than I thought it would be. Twice I've been in groups of about 7 players that failed, which I don't think happened a lot with the birds.
Not sure about the quick move, but hydro pump is definitely stronger, allowing only one solar beam per exegg (level 30 or slightly higher). Bubble beam and water pulse let you use 2 solar beams.
Seed bomb works really well I think, you can almost shoot it continuously.

Entei is definitely the easiest from what I've heard. But until Suicune comes to America it'll be hard for me to compare it with Raikou.

  • volt switch raikou
  • suicune with hidden power ice, poison, fire, or bug. Ground hits electric types hard but is resisted by grass, flying hits grass but is resisted by electric (otherwise I'd include hose two types). And you don't know which HP is coming!

Depend the counters. Exec and zapdos is only good counter of Suicune. Raikou and Entei has plenty good counters. But if you all ready have couple good Raikou it's a bit different. Entei is easy for 4 lvl +35 players.

Raikou is the hardest, Entei is the weakest.

Dont know about the others, but we have suicune here

We managed to win with 5 players while only me using full exeggutors, the others use 1 zapdos and dragonites, even using lugia
Win with only 15 seconds left
It is the bubble beam one though, against hydropump ww will probably fail

But i guess if 4 player using high level with zapdos or exeggutor with high level (still dont have raikou yet in here) might win against suicune..

• Raikou with either wild charge or thunderbolt as the charge move are pretty annoying.

• Suicuine won't be too difficult since it's the lowest out of the other two beast and most people should have a decent grass army at this point but with hidden power it's a toss up.

• Entei is really bulky but even then all you need is a army of water mons and most people nowadays should have acouple vapes and other water mons in there arsenal. Flamethrower would most likely be the most annoying charge move to deal with in this situation.

So for me it would be Raikou, Suicuine, and Entei.

I've only got experience with Raikou, but if it's got wild charge you better have at least 7.

That said, I don't think Suicine will be that hard once it rotates in here, since most people will have plenty of Raikou to deal with it, but for those facing it now it sounds like it's harder.

We can kill entei with 5 lvl 30-35s using vape, rhydon, ttar & golems.. It dies pretty quickly but maybe the others die just as fast?

We've done Raikou with 6 or even 5 people if they're all good. The armies I was seeing used weren't anything to call home about in terms of mon choice, lots of people were using rock golems instead of mseq rhydons. So I think could be done with 4 high levels with optimal attackers.

I am not scared of Entei - not with the armies of rock and earth attackers that people who do legendary raids have at this point. I think he will probably be the easiest of the dogs.

I think Suicune is likely to be the hardest due to the unpredictability of moveset and bulk.
