Incarnate Forme Tornadus in Pokemon Go

The Legendary Tornadus Incarnate is taking over 5-Star Raids in Pokemon Go, giving players the chance to add a useful Flying type to their teams.

So, here are all the recommended counters to beat this formidable Raid Boss easily, including details on its weaknesses, shiny chances of Tornadus Incarnate, and its moveset.

Best counters for Pokemon Go Tornadus Incarnate Raid

  • Shadow Rampardos – Smack Down and Rock Slide
  • Mega Diancie – Rock Throw and Rock Slide
  • Shadow Rhyperior – Smack Down and Rock Wrecker
  • Shadow Raikou – Thunder Shock and Wild Charge
  • Xurkitree – Thunder Shock and Discharge
  • Shadow Mamoswine – Powder Snow and Avalanche
  • Mega Tyranitar – Smack Down and Stone Edge

Rock and Electric-type counters are your best option to beat Tornadus Incarnate Raids as they resist the Boss’ strongest attacks. The Shadow boost from some of the recommended species deals massive damage but they require dodging and are often expensive to power up in Pokemon Go.

You can also use Mega Aerodactyl, Thundurus Therian, Galarian Darmanitan, Baxcalibur, and Magnezone.

Remember that Tornadus Incarnate isn’t too tanky, so using hard-hitting moves is the trick.
