Mewtu is a hot raid boss in Pokémon Go this week, as he can learn the Psychic Strike ability, which has just been properly boosted. However, the difficulty level this time is higher than other events. Therefore, you’ll have to use the best counter Pokémon, which we’ll show you below.
Mewtu returns for a week with a powerful Psycho Charge attack Psycho Strike, but it is significantly harder to defeat than the times before. This version of Mewtu has 248 attack, 155 defense, and 22,500 CP. This gives it a WP of 66,318 in the raid. For comparison, the normal Mewtu (without armor) had 49,430 WP in the last event and could be easily defeated by three players. Although Mewtu appears in the Tier 5 raids, it is actually classified as a Tier 6 boss. So this time, you’re more likely to need four trainers with the appropriate counter Pokémon. If you go into battle here with the Pokémon suggested by the game, you won’t succeed.
After Spookball and Hyperbeam became legacy moves, Mewtu now has Flame Throw, Ice Beam, Thunder Bolt, Focus Blast, and Psychokinesis attacks. He continues to cast either Confusion or Psycho Blade as instant attacks. He is vulnerable to bug, spirit, and unlight attacks. The WP range is 2,294 to 2,387.
What the best counters are against Mewtu depends on what charge attacks he uses, how many players you are competing with, and even the weather plays a small role. In the rain, for example, Beetle Pokémon play their advantages, but if they are hit by Flame Throw, they immediately bite the dust. Below you can see the best counters with the fastest time to victory (TTW, Time to Win) – no matter what abilities Mewtu uses.
- chandelure – burden, haunted ball
- giratina (archetype) – dark claw, haunted ball
- gengar – dark claw, haunted ball
- mewtu – psycho blade, haunted ball
- hydreigon – bite, finsteraura
- Despotar – Bite, Crunch
- snibunna – feint, parasite
- Banette – dark claw, spookball
- pinsir – anger blade, cross scissors
- Absol – Standpauke, Finsteraura
- dogemon – tirade, parasite
- traunmagil – low blow, spookball
- Scherok – Wrath Blade, Cross Scissors
- raikou – thunder shock, spook ball
- yanmega – bug bite, bug buzz
No suitable counters from this list? Then go for Dragons like Dragoran or Rayquaza with Dragon Rod and Rage Attack, or whatever other Unlight and Beetle Pokémon you have with the respective attacks and reasonably high level.
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.
