Best Primal Kyogre Counters in Pokemon GO: Type Effectiveness & Weaknesses

There are few Pokemon as formidable as Primal Kyogre, especially in Pokemon GO Raids, and here are the best counters you can use to defeat the enhanced Sea Basin Pokemon.

Primal Kyogre Weakness & Type Effectiveness

Primal Kyogre is a pure Water-type Legendary, which means players will want to prioritize Grass and Electric-type moves. Being a mono-type Pokemon, it’s also a lot easier to keep track of which types you should avoid bringing.

Pokemon	Type	Vulnerable To	Strong Against	Resistant To
Primal Kyogre	Water	Grass Electric	Fire Ground Rock Steel	Fire Water Ice Steel

While it is possible for Kyogre to bring an Ice-type or Electric-type move into a 6-star Pokemon GO raid, players really only have to worry about its Water-type attacks. This means, Fire, Ground, Rock, and Steel-type Pokemon are aa no go against Primal Kyogre.

Sadly, Grass-type Pokemon aren’t always the strongest, but they are the best shot players will have against a Legendary Pokemon of this caliber

Best Primal Kyogre Counters in Pokemon GO

Grass and Electric-type Pokemon are the only way to go when battling Primal Kyogre. They will need to be above 3500 CP and have strong attacks if you hope to finish off this Legendary within the allotted time. Without further ado, here are the top 10 counters to use against Primal Kyogre:

Pokemon	Moves
Mega Sceptile	Bullet Seed Frenzy Plant
Zarude	Vine Whip Power Whip
Mega Venusaur	Vine Whip Frenzy Plant
Tangrowth (Shadow)	Vine Whip Power Whip
Raikou (Shadow)	Thunder Shock Wild Charge
Xurkitree	Spark Discharge
Zapdos (Shadow)	Thunder Shock Thunderbolt
Magnezone (Shadow)	Spark Wild Charge
Zekrom	Charge Beam Fusion Bolt
Mega Manectric	Thunder Fang Wild Charge

Mega Sceptile is the foremost choice amongst most trainers when taking on Primal Groudon. With high enough CP, Mega Sceptile is one of the most effective choices and only really suffers if you’re unlucky enough for the Kyogre you’re battling to know Blizzard.
