Pokémon GO: Mega Charizard X & Y Raid Guide (Best Counters)
Mega Charizard X and Mega Charizard Y are the two Mega variants of Charizard in Pokémon GO. These two Mega Pokémon serve as Mega-Tier Raid Bosses, with Mega Charizard X possessing 53,260 Combat Power and Mega Charizard Y with 61,631 CP. Needless to say, both are extremely powerful, meaning that a Trainer must team up with two or more players for a Mega Charizard Raid. If a member in the Raid party in Pokémon GO is under-leveled, then even more Trainers might be necessary to take down Mega Charizard. Naturally, facing either Mega variant alone will probably result in an unfortunate loss of Revives and Healing Potions. Accordingly, having an adequate number of players with high-CP counters is essential for victory.
Mega Charizard Y and Mega Charizard X possess different elemental characteristics in Pokémon GO. As a result, the Pokémon suitable for countering these two Raid Bosses will slightly vary. First, Mega Charizard Y is a Fire- and Flying-type Pokémon, making it weak to Rock-, Water-, and Electric-type Movesets. On the other hand, Mega Charizard X is a Fire- and Dragon-type Pokémon, meaning it is vulnerable to Ground-, Rock-, and Dragon-type attacks.
