Mega Ampharos Raid Duo Guide

The undisputed lord of damage, Mega Rayquaza boasts an outstanding TDO in conjunction with the best DPS in the game. It's hard to overstate just how great it is here, as its raw power is very much solo-worthy. While not the undisputed best option for this raid, it's absolutely never a bad choice, and is arguably the best Mega Evolution option outside of the solo.

Primal Groudon is possibly the best Pokemon in this raid for the solo. It not only has the DPS to do the work, it also has the highest TDO among all of Mega Ampharos' counters, making it easy-mode when setting up for a solo, especially in clear weather.

...note the word "possibly" above. Mega Garchomp's DPS is slightly behind Primal Groudon, but its triple-resistance to Mega Ampharos' Electric Type moves makes it potentially able to outlast even the Ground titan itself For this reason, it's 100% on a par with Primal Groudon, and very much worth utilizing.

While no longer the dragon king, Mega Salamence is still a solid Dragon Type attacker that can still work wonders here.

While we can't really recommend other Fairy Types for this raid to any great degree, but Mega Gardevoir itself is still solid in its own right.

Often overlooked, but Mega Latios is a strong Dragon Type that works well regardless.

The best non-Mega counter for this raid, Garchomp can leverage its triple-resistance to Electric Type attacks to make Mega Ampharos a joke.

Salamence lacks an Electric Type resistance and doesn't appreciate Power Gem. However, it's still an outstanding DPS option.

A bit lower on DPS, but with a bit more TDO as a trade-off.

While normally on the frail side, Shadow Mamoswine's double-resistance to Electric Type attacks goes a long way.

Capable of running through pretty much anything that Mega Ampharos can throw at it, Shadow Excadrill remains an absolutely outstanding Ground Type that causes massive damage.
