Flavor of the Month Archive

The Regi trio has made its debut in Pokemon GO! Regice will be here until July 19. Fighting is your best friend for the next few weeks, but Fire, Rock, and Steel are great as well.

It's a boy! And a girl! It's twins! Latias and Latios are topping gyms until June 5, so you'll be using a lot of Dragon and Psychic-type counters. In addition to the "core" attackers marked below, you may also find yourself using some of these over the next month.

What’s old is new again. With a buffed Sky Attack and the possibility of being shiny, Lugia is back! Since Lugia lacks double weaknesses and has a high Defense, it’s the beefiest Tier 5 boss to date. This time around, trainers are likely to have better counters than when Lugia first appeared. These are some of the Pokemon that will help carry you to victory for the next few weeks of Lugia.

Rayquaza’s arrival and its status as the new DPS champion caused a lot of excitement, and its double weakness to Ice also caused trainers to dust off Ice attackers they may have relegated to the shelf. Fittingly, we’re highlighting the Ice Pokemon that most trainers have probably powered up a bit to take on this latest legendary boss.
