Sierra’s Pokemon GO March 2025 lineup shares weaknesses, making the battle easier. The best counters are Charizard Y, Raikou, and Primal Groudon, covering all her possible Shadow Pokemon.
- Monsters like Charizard Y or Mega Blaziken can notably damage Skorupi and Ferrothorn. You must have high CP Fire-type monsters with powerful Fire-type moves to trigger the Same Type of Attack Bonus and inflict maximum damage.
- Regarding the Electric-type Milotic, you can use monsters like Raikou or Xurkitree as counters.
- Sierra’s other Shadow Pokemon are weak to Ground-types, so you must choose Ground-type Pokemon with powerful Ground-type moves. Primal Groudon or Mega Garchomp can work best for other Shadow Pokemon.
They do not have to be in their Mega or Primal forms, you can also use their regular forms.
