Today Is Guzzlord Raid Hour #2 In Pokémon GO: November 2022

Tonight, Wednesday, November 16th, is the second and final Guzzlord Raid Hour happening those month in Pokémon GO. From 6 PM–7 PM, most Gyms in the game will pop Tier Five raids featuring this newly released Dark/Dragon-type Ultra Beast coming at us via Ultra Wormholes. Guzzlord is a unique Raid Boss in that it’s possible… keep in mind, possible, not easy… to defeat as a solo trainer. Let’s take a look to see how it might be done.

The top ten Guzzlord counters are:

• Shadow Gardevoir: Charm, Dazzling Gleam
• Shadow Granbull: Charm, Play Rough
• Mega Alakazam: Counter, Dazzling Gleam
• Gardevoir: Charm, Dazzling Gleam
• Togekiss: Charm, Dazzling Gleam
• Xurkitree: Thunder Shock, Dazzling Gleam
• Zacian – Hero Forme: Quick Attack, Play Rough
• Primarina: Charm, Moonblast
• Granbull: Charm, Play Rough
• Sylveon: Charm, Dazzling Gleam

It is recommended to power up your counters as much as possible, but creating that amount of strong Shadow Pokémon with their moves unlocked is a tall order for even the most practiced players. Here are ten additional non-Shadow and non-Mega counters that can help take down Palkia with efficiency.

• Tapu Koko: Quick Attack, Dazzling Gleam
• Galarian Rapidash: Fairy Wind, Play Rough
• Beartic: Charm, Play Rough
• Terrakion: Double Kick, Sacred Sword
• Florges: Fairy Wind, Moonblast
• Tapu Bulu: Bullet Seed, Dazzling Gleam
• Clefable: Charm, Dazzling Gleam
• Donphan: Charm, Play Rough
• Galarian Weezing: Fairy Wind, Play Rough
• Lucario: Counter, Aura Sphere

Note that Guzzlord is double weak to Fairy-types and you must take advantage of that double weakness in order to defeat this Ultra Beast as a solo trainer.
