When you start a battle in an arena or a raid, Pokémon GO suggests a team for this battle in a pre-selection. However, this selection is not always optimal. How to find the best team instead, we explain in our quick tip.

One of the main features of Pokémon GO is the PvP battles in raids and arenas. Since the release of the popular mobile app, trainers have been using their captured pocket monsters to collect rewards and new Pokémon. To make it easier for players to get started, Pokémon GO has a special feature: The game suggests which team of Pokémon in your possession you should go into battle with.

However, this selection that Pokémon GO makes for you is often not the best possible setup. The game often simply recommends the Pokémon that will survive the longest in a raid or arena battle, based on your opponents’ abilities and Pokémon types. For the most part, however, you’ll rarely need Pokémon that can withstand a lot of damage – an attribute that’s especially interesting for arena defense. Instead, you’ll mostly want to include Pokémon in your attack team that can deal as much damage as possible.

When choosing your team for battles in arenas and raids, you should therefore not blindly rely on the team composition recommended by Pokémon GO. Instead, it is worthwhile to consult appropriate guides in advance, which will give you information about the best raid counters. You can find such guides on our Pokémon GO topic page, for example. To prepare for Arena battles, it’s also a good idea to choose Pokémon that are strong against popular Arena Pokémon like Relaxo and Chaneira. For example, the Battle Pokémon Machomei is particularly useful against these normal Pokémon, as it quickly destroys its opponents with a lot of DPS.

Finally, we want to know from you: What recommendations does Pokémon GO usually give you for Raid and Arena battles? Write it down in the comments!

Pokémon GO

Pokémon Go is the mobile spin-off of Nintendo’s popular Pokémon game series for Android and iOS. It is a so-called “location-based game”, i.e. a game that uses the player’s immediate surroundings. It is based on the principle of augmented reality.

Pokémon Map: Between landmarks and sights

Pokémon Go uses a Global Positioning System (GPS) to determine the player’s location and displays it on a map that also represents the playing field. The map is based on OpenStreetMap maps. The game is played mostly outdoors and uses landmarks, landmarks and other notable or eye-catching objects in the world to position either PokéStops or arenas there for you to battle for supremacy. Join either Team Intuition (Team Yellow, Zapdos), Team Wisdom (Team Blue, Arktos), or Team Daring (Team Red, Lavados). Under their flag you can then fight for the arenas, which are placed at hotspots like churches or similar. Pokémon can appear anywhere, though.

Pocket monsters visible on the Pokémon Go Map are randomly loaded into the game’s virtual map by the game server. If several players are playing in the same location, each player can see and catch the Pokémon independently of the others.

Pokémon Go Updates, News, Raids and More

The developers at Niantic regularly provide Pokémon Go with new updates or special raids that should only be tackled in a group of several people. The Pokémon Go Raids are therefore very popular, as they also offer the prospect of particularly rare Pokémon. For example, in the past, legendary Pokémon could always be caught on special occasions (Pokémon Go events). For particularly eager mobile or smartphone Pokémon trainers, there is also an external IV calculator, such as the online tool from Pokemon.gameinfo.io or on Pokefans.net, to check the values of your Pokémon.
