We are facing a Pokémon of the Electric and Flying type, aspects that we must take into account in order to establish the type strategy in our team of counters, although you can imagine what its main weakness is; this is where we must attack mainly.

Thundurus Avatar Form’s stats leave us a creature with 266 ATK, 164 DEF and 188 RES. It is not too difficult to knock down if we use good Rock and Ice-type attackers, but we must be very careful with Thunder, the charged one that has a chance of leaving and that can leave us K.O. if it is a Thundurus with good base stats. In the raid, the creature will come out with 46,044 CP, while the benchmark at level 50 with 100% IVs is 3782 CP. Thundurus main weaknesses: x4 against Rock-type and Ice-type. We recommend going with four or five people to this raid.
