Move Difficulty

Mud Shot is the easiest move to face here. While it can be good on an attacker, it's downright horrible on a raid boss... which is VERY good for us. Extrasensory doesn't hit very hard, partly due to a lack of STAB, so it's still pretty easy overall. Earthquake is a fairly powerful move that poses a threat to many would-be counters, but it's also pretty easy to dodge. It should definitely be dodged if possible.

Bulldoze has a good mix of raw power and usability. It hits hard and comes out reasonably quickly, putting it a tier above Earthquake/

Stone Edge doesn't drop very often, but it hits hard, is Super Effective against most Ice Types, and is hard to evade. Finally, Superpower has strong overall performance, is Super Effective against most Ice Types, and comes out relatively frequently.

Overview

Landorus - Therian is a great attacker, and a very reasonable raid. If you've got the Ice Types, then this should be a relatively high priority. It poses a threat to a lot of its counters depending on the moveset, so it's definitely important to play carefully.

Team Building Approach

  • Landorus (Therian Forme) is weak to 2x Ice and Water.
    • Ice is always the way to go. Regardless of the situation, the top Ice Types dominate this raid due to the fact that Landorus has a double weakness to their STAB moves.
    • Water is the only other option, and the top Water Types can't even match the majority of the best ice Types in Rainy weather.

Best Raid Counters

Despite its raw strength, Landorus Therian is a pretty easy duo, and can even be soloed by the top counters on this list. In particular, if you're one of the lucky few to already have a White Kyurem or two, then this raid is actually pretty manageable if you play smart.

Supreme Counters

Among the top counters here, only the top 2-3 are truly solo-viable. However, everything here can very, very easily manage a solo. The outlier is Mega Glalie, which is definitely weaker than the competition, but it also has the advantage of standing as the top Ice Type Mega Evolution. The supportive function alone gives it a higher position than it would have otherwise.
