PoGO – Pokémon Go: Yveltal as Raid Boss – Counter Guide

In May 2021, after the legendary stag Xerneas, the destruction Pokémon Yveltal will also make an appearance in the Tier 5 Raids of Pokémon Go. Do you want to face the gnarly pocket monster? Then we have the latest counter guide for Yveltal in Pokémon Go for you!

Xerneas is pretty. Zygarde is … well… glubschig and insanely complicated. Both legendary Pokémon have their advantages and disadvantages, but die-hard Pokémon fans are waiting for just one pocket monster in Pokémon Go: Yveltal. The pocket monster of the rather rare types Unlight and Flight has the potential to turn the metagame of Pokémon Go mightily upside down. Any self-respecting trainer will want to grab at least one Yveltal for their collection. Metagamers will want to have several of them at once.

But before the catch comes the fight! To make sure that you succeed in the fight against Yveltal and win the battle, we have prepared an up-to-date counter-attack guide for Yveltal. We’ve left out the expensive Crypto Pokémon for the best counters – if you want to take Cryptos with you, then take Crypto Raikou and Crypto Zapdos!

Yveltal – the best counters for the Raid

As mentioned above, Yveltal is a Unlight and Flight type Pokémon, and therefore takes the most damage right away from Electric, Fairy, Ice, and Rock attacks. But hey, you don’t have to use ground or psychic attackers like Mewtu. You should also stay away from Spirit Mon, because Yveltal uses all kinds of Unlight attacks and thus double-dips Spirit Pokémon. Electro attacks, on the other hand, take advantage of Yveltal’s weakness, so make sure you choose Electro Mon for your counterattacks. Yveltal shouldn’t cause you any problems if you attack with at least four or more trainers. If you have the perfect counters at your disposal, you can also defeat the legendary Pokémon with three players.

The following Pokémon are good counters for Yveltal. As mentioned, if you want to take Cryptos with you, go for Crypto-Raikou and Crypto-Zapdos.

  • Zekrom with charge beam and surge
  • Mega-Voltenso with charge beam and power surge
  • Voltolos (animal spirit) with volt change and thunderbolt
  • Rihornior with catapult and rock thrower
  • Raikou with thunder shock and surge
  • Rameidon with catapult and hail of stones
  • Elevoltek with Thunder Shock and Surge
  • Zapdos with thunder shock and thunder lightning
  • Mega-Rexblisar with Powder Snow and Meteorologist
  • Mega-Ampharos with volt change and lightning cannon
  • Terrakium with catapult and hail of stones
  • Magnezone with spark jump and power surge
  • Luxtra with spark jump and surge
  • Mamutel with powder snow and avalanche

Catch Yveltal

If you have successfully completed the battle against Yveltal and have the chance to banish the pocket monster into your Pokéball, then Yveltal has 2,160 CP at level 20 with 100% IV values. If Yveltal is boosted to level 25 on Wind or Fog, then it has 2,701 CP at perfect 100% IV values. We wish you good luck in the hunt!

Pokémon GO

Pokémon Go is the mobile spin-off of Nintendo’s popular Pokémon game 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 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 .gameinfo.io or on Pokefans.net, to check the values of your Pokémon.
