Pokémon GO: how to beat and capture Reshiram from home; best counters

The Legendary Pokémon from the Teselia region debuts in the Niantic game on May 26; available only a few days. We know your best opponents.

Pokémon GO is still tinged with Teselia's color. The fifth generation of the saga has not said its last word in the Niantic phenomenon and, after several months learning about the native fauna of the region, it is time to welcome its trio of legendary protagonists: Reshiram, Zekrom and Kyurem. As we told you in this news days ago, we already know the exact dates of each one of them, but this time we are going to focus on the first one, to which we dedicate this guide to face the incursions and their best opponents.

When will Reshiram be on the raids?

The first thing we should highlight are the dates. From this Tuesday to next Tuesday, June 16 at 10:00 p.m. (CEST) we will be able to face this legendary Dragon and Fire type Pokémon introduced in the fifth generation, mainly known for being chosen for the cover of Pokémon Black .

In addition, this Wednesday, May 27, 2020, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. (local time) it will be legendary time, so we will meet Reshiram much more often even if we play from home, which is what we should do in Spain while the state of alarm is decreed and there continue to be restrictions on mobility. Here we tell you how to get your remote raid pass.

What we know about Reshiram in Pokémon GO

The Reshiram data sheet leaves us with a Pokémon with a high rate of statistics. With 275 ATK and 211 DEF, its 205 stamina culminates a very powerful creature. At Level 40 and with 100% we will see it with 4038 CP, so that is the number that we must remember in their confrontation in order to capture it. The Frambu Berries and Golden Frambu Berries are ideal to facilitate the capture process, especially at such high levels. We do not recommend going with less than six people to this raid because it will not be difficult to have enough time to finish them.

Reshiram is the first to break into Pokémon GO

Reshiram's attack moveset is made up of Dragon Breath and Fiery Fang in rapid movements; while in the loaded we can see it with Sharp Rock, Flushing, Crushing or Draco Comet. Especially the latter can be very complex to counter if we use dragons as it is a movement with weakness to this type.

Best opponents to defeat Reshiram

Now yes, we come to the opponents. We are dealing with a creature that is resistant to movements of Fire and Plant type above any other, so we must avoid inflicting damage with this type of attack at all costs. For their part, the Dragon, Rock and Fight type are especially favorable (as long as we do not use dragons, where we will have a certain disadvantage if we play a Reshiram with Comet Draco).

  • Rayquaza with Dragon Tail and Anger

  • Rampardos with Antiaircraft and Avalanche

  • Rhyperior with Mud Slap and Rockbreaker

  • Salamence with Dragon Tail and Anger

  • Dialga with Dragoaliento and Cometa Draco

  • Dragonite with Dragon Tail and Dragon Claw

We recall that Terrakion is temporarily available on raids; Here you can consult our complete guide. Also the Sinnoh 2020 Return Challenge is still active, although only for a few days.
