The return of Kyogre in Pokémon GO is approaching and the monster can already be easily defeated by three players. We show you how to do it even at level 25.
You need this level: With three players, you shouldn’t have any problems and can easily defeat Kyogre. Even if you have the best counters only at level 25, you can still take down Kyogre with three players.
How much time do I have? Kyogre is in raids for less than 2 weeks. You have from June 18 at 10 PM until June 27 to battle Kyogre.
How to defeat Kyogre with just three players
These counters are good: Kyogre is a Water-type Pokémon, making it vulnerable to Electric and Grass types.
How to succeed at low levels: The weaker your Pokémon are, the more tricks you have to use. For instance, the highest friendship level is important and so is the weather, as it makes your Pokémon stronger in battle.
