In an exciting battle, a group of two Pokémon GO trainers defeated the legendary Pokémon “Lavados”. In the video, you can see the battle. Naturally, Tyranitar and Golem were used, which are considered strong counters against Lavados. But well-known Water Pokémon also helped to defeat the Fire Bird.
Since yesterday, you can find another part of the legendary bird trio in Pokémon GO. Lavados is now available as a raid boss in the world, having replaced the Ice Bird Articuno, which had been in the game since the Pokémon GO Fest.
Many trainers have already faced the Fire Bird Lavados since yesterday. It turned out that the battle against this monster is not “particularly difficult”. Since then, groups have been trying to win the battle with as few players as possible. A duo trainer group has now achieved victory against the legendary boss.
Defeating Lavados with Two – A Close Call!
A new video shows how much influence a perfect Pokémon team can have on the battle against Lavados. The video surfaced on Reddit, showing Lavados being attacked and defeated by two trainers. With about 5 seconds left, it becomes clear that lag would lead to failure – a remarkable achievement and a strong team of the two trainers.
It’s Better in Threes – Golem and Tyranitar are the Favorites
The legendary Pokémon are something special in Pokémon GO, as they are only available for a limited time in the game. This means that you have a certain time window to catch each of the three birds.
Of course, trainers want to defeat Lavados and catch it as quickly and effectively as possible while it is still in the game. You can find the schedule for the legendary birds here.
Trainers who have strong counter Pokémon have it easy in raids. Effective against Lavados are Golem or Tyranitar. If the two attackers also have Stone Edge in their moveset, you can deal a lot of damage. This is also shown by the trainers in the following video, who defeated the legendary Fire Bird in a trio group.
The following Pokémon and movesets were used in the battle:
- Trainer 1 – Two Tyranitar with Bite and Stone Edge, Two Golem with Rock Throw and Stone Edge, one Vaporeon with Water Gun and Aqua Tail, one Vaporeon with Water Gun and Hydro Pump.
- Trainer 2 – One Tyranitar, two Golem, one Amoroso, two Vaporeon
- Trainer 3 – One Tyranitar, three Golem, two Vaporeon
