Wimpod is a Bug- and Water-type Alola Pokémon in Pokémon GO that is debuting as a Raid Boss as part of the game's Crossover Event with the franchise's trading card game Pokémon TCG. As a Tier-1 Raid Boss, this small arthropod Pokémon's Combat Power will likely be moderately low, meaning that a solo Trainer should be able to complete the Raid. Nevertheless, it is still essential thatPokémon GO Trainers use a party of Pokémon with Movesets that counter Wimpod's elements for the best results in combat.
As a Bug- and Water-type Pokémon from Alola, Wimpod is resistant to Fighting-, Ground-, Steel-, Water- and Ice-type Moves. Accordingly, it would be impractical to take Pokémon such as Hariyama or Lumineon into this Raid battle. On the other hand, Wimpod's dual elemental attributes make it highly vulnerable to Flying-, Rock-, and Electric-type attacks. Hence, Trainers will need to assemble a Raid party of Pokémon that offers these countering elements.

The top-tier counters for the Wimpod Raid in Pokémon GO are Mega Pidgeot, Mega Manectric, Mega Aerodactyl, Mega Ampharos, Mega Thundurus, Zekrom, and Raikou. However, not all Trainers will have these highly rare Legendary or Mega Pokémon in Pokémon GO. Alternatively, the regular Pokémon listed below are more than capable of countering Wimpod in combat.
Here is a list of the best counters and Movesets for Wimpod in a Tier-1 Pokémon GO Raid battle:
