Regigigas Raid Trio Guide

Mega Blaziken hits like a truck and spreads a Fighting Mega Evolution boost while on the field, meaning it's one of the absolute best counters for this raid. Its one down-side is the fact that it has no resistances and is weak to Zen Headbutt, but it's still easily one of the best counters to bring to this raid.

The original Fighting Type Mega in Pokemon Go, Mega Lopunny was never great, but it's a good option for a budget-Mega! It can put in some real work, but note that it's weak to both of Regigigas' Fast Moves and Focus Blast, and will fold fast to Giga Impact while also taking a huge chunk of HP from Thunder. 

It's a risky Mega, but it's generally better than no Mega at all.

While not a Fighting Type itself, Mega Alakazam has a sky-high Attack stat and a good Fighting Type moveset, meaning it's actually got the second-highest DPS among the currently available Fighting Type Mega Evolutions. Not only that, it also resists both of Regigigas' Fast Moves, so it's pretty much guaranteed to reach the big 'mon's Charged Moves... which it will probably fold like a piece of paper to if it takes the hit, only maybe surviving a direct hit from Focus Blast thanks to its Fighting resistance.

That said, we have to rate Mega Alakazam under Mega Lopunny in most cases due to the fact that it doesn't spread a Fighting Type Mega Boost. This matters less with fewer players, though.

The Fighting King, Terrakion comes in strong in this raid and sports a resistance to Giga Impact.... but it's also weak to both of Regigigas' Fast Moves and Focus Blast. But don't let this deter you, as Terrakion will definitely cause some severe pain to Regigigas while it's on the field!

One punch good, four punch better!

Shadow Machamp is the true vanilla of the top Fighting Types, and that's not a bad thing. It doesn't like Zen Headbutt, but overall it has stellar performance that shouldn't be underestimated.

This little Mythical Pokemon has all of the power of Terrakion, but it's not quite as good at kicking so it falls a bit short. Watch out for Zen Headbutt and Thunder!

While not quite on a par with Shadow Machamp, Shadow Hariyama should not be underestimated as it still has objectively great performance. 

The only non-Shadow/Legendary/Mythical Pokemon on this side of the list, Lucario still has the sheer power needed to put holes into Regigigas, and it's one of the few Fighting Types that doesn't mind Zen Headbutt. However, instead it fears Hidden Power and Focus Blast... there's always a trade-off.

Still don't have the Fighting Type belt, do 'ya Conkeldurr? Keep trying, buddy.

Remember those 6 Machamp that you raised back in  2017-2019? Yup, still viable.

Yeah, Shadow Mewtwo actually prefers Psystrike for this raid... it's just that good!

This masked Luchador is viable thanks to the sheer power behind Flying Press, so if you live in Mexico or have visited recently, then it's a good Pokemon to bring along for this raid so that it can slam into Regigigas from off the top rope!

Where Machamp goes, Hariyama follows.

If you're fortunate enough to have a good Shadow Regigigas with Hidden Power Fighting, then it can work surprisingly well against its shadow-self. Just don't expect it to last an extremely long time if fighting Hidden Power or Focus Blast.

I'm as surprised by this one as you are! Yes, Cobalion is actually pretty good here thanks to the stellar moveset of Double Kick and Sacred Sword. Its DPS is a bit low, but it's got a decent presence on the field.

BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ

Galarian Zapdos may not be the best, but it's not a bad Fighting Type atta-aaaand it escaped the ball and ran away. Better luck next time.

Done with your fried chicken? Then how about trying some crushed mushrooms?

Shadow Alakazam sees its own inevitable demise. It will do its best to serve you in its 8 seconds on the field.
