So finally, the fan-favorite Legendary Lugia has been brought back in Pokemon Go. In the middle of the Halloween Event, Niantic announced that from 5th November, Lugia would appear in 5-Star Raid Battles. Lugia first debuted in 2017, and since then, the popularity of Lugia has massively increased. Lugia is a powerful Psychic/Flying-type Pokemon. To catch this Legendary Pokemon, players have to use the right and powerful counter Pokemon to win the battle.
From November 5 to November 12, Lugia will appear in 5-Star Raid Battles. Players will have enough time to catch it. The great thing about the current Lugia Raid Battle is that players can also encounter Lugia‘s shiny form. The shiny form of Lugia is so elegant. The next big thing in Lugia Raid Battle is that players will get its Legacy move Aeroblast too. Like every Raid Battle, there will be a Lugia Raid hour too, which will take place on 10 November.
As mentioned earlier, Lugia is a powerful Pokemon, and to win the Raid Battle, players have to organize a team of strong trainers and powerful counter Pokemon. To win the battle, there must be three higher rank trainers in the lobby. Apart from it, every trainer must have powerful counter Pokemon to defeat Lugia. Psychic Pokemon are weak against Dark-type Pokemon, while Flying-type is weak against Rock and Electric-type Pokemon. You must keep a mixture of all the best counter Pokemon to win the battle. So here is the list of the best counter Pokemon to defeat Lugia in Raid Battle.
