Pokemon GO Best Regirock Raid Counters (February 2022)

gamerant.com:

The return of the Regi-trio started at the end of January, but the rotation of Legendary Battle Raid bosses continues through the first few weeks of February, as well. Many of the Battle Raid bosses this month directly link to the Pokemon GO February 2022 events calendar, but the first week will see players facing off against Regirock once again.

Regirock remains a fairly popular Pokemon in the mobile AR game, despite mixed opinions about the relevance of the Regi-trio in the overall Pokemon GO metagame. That means that this week may end up being a very popular time for Legendary Battle Raids and trainers will be out in full force making sure that they churn through enough to earn an encounter with a Regirock who has an appropriately impressive IV. To do that, Pokemon GO players will want to make sure they take some time to optimize an ideal counter roster for the big fight.

Pokemon GO — February 2022 Legendary and Mega Raid Schedule

Regirock, as the name suggests, is a pure Rock-type, which makes understanding its counters fairly simple and there are a lot of great options. Considering the addition of some new Pokemon to the game and the new option of Mega Evolutions, many players will still want to optimize their roster once more, even if they already did so over the summer. As usual for Regirock battles, players should put their focus on Steel, Water, Fighting, Ground and Grass types. With that in mind, here are some of the top options that players should consider powering up before heading into their first Battle Raid this weekend...

Blastoise (Mega) — Water Gun Hydro Cannon

Venusaur (Mega) — Vine Whip Frenzy Plant

Metagross — Bullet Punch Meteor Mash

Landorus (Therian) — Mud Shot Earth Power

Groudon — Mud Shot Earthquake
