In this Kyogre guide, we show you how to defeat the legendary raid boss in Pokémon GO.
With the disappearance of Cresselia, Kyogre returns to raids. You can best win the battle with strong Electric Pokémon. In our overview, we show you which ones are suitable.
Kyogre Overview – What can the Boss do?
The Water Pokémon Kyogre can be found as a legendary opponent in Level 5 raids. Its boss CP is 54411. You can find it as a raid boss until June 27 in the arenas of Pokémon GO.
Due to its Water type, Kyogre is vulnerable to strong Electric and Grass types. After catching, Kyogre has a maximum of 2351 CP (Level 20, perfect IVs) or 2939 CP (Level 25, rainy weather, perfect IV).
When facing Kyogre, it’s best to use a typical attacker count of at least 3-4 trainers (Level 38 and higher).

Kyogre Counters – These Monsters are Effective in Battle
To effectively battle Kyogre, Electric or Grass type monsters with appropriate attacks are particularly well-suited. Raikou is the strongest counter that can handle all of Kyogre’s movesets. Electivire or Zapdos also fit into this schema, but are generally a bit weaker than Raikou.
The shown Grass types are good if the Kyogre does not know Blizzard.
| Pokémon | Moveset |
| Raikou | Thunder Shock and Voltage |

| Mewtwo | Psycho Cut and Thunderbolt |
| Zapdos | Thunder Shock and Thunderbolt |
