Now that Cresselia is preparing for its departure at 1 PM (PDT) today, players can gear up for the return of Articuno to 5-star Raid Battles.<\/p>\n<p>Articuno has been available before in <em><a href=\"http:\/\/gamerant.com\/tag\/pokemon-go\">Pokemon GO<\/a><\/em>, both as a Legendary Raid Battle, and as a weekly Research Breakthrough encounter. While its latest appearance won&#8217;t introduce any dazzling new moves or abilities, it\u00a0<em>will<\/em> give dedicated Trainers another opportunity to snag a Shiny variant of the elusive legend.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/pokemon-go-jessie-james-encounter-rate-increase\/\">Pokemon GO Increasing Jessie and James Encounter Rate<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>This time around, there isn&#8217;t any sort of Ice-type event, or any other relevant event, accompanying Articuno. It&#8217;s simply\u00a0replacing Cresselia as the raid-available\u00a0Legendary Pokemon from September 18th through September 25th at 1 PM (PDT).\u00a0 That said, it&#8217;s thankfully one of the easier Legendary opponents to take out, so players can at least take advantage of the <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/pokemon-go-2-4-star-raid-battles-gone-niantic\/\">new updates to raid rewards<\/a> for extra Premier Balls. Articuno can be easily defeated with a group of 3-4 mid-to-high-level players, though two level 40 Trainers\u00a0can confidently\u00a0challenge\u00a0the Legendary bird if they&#8217;re stocked with appropriate counters.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a brief overview of\u00a0Articuno&#8217;s current stats in\u00a0<em>Pokemon GO<\/em>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ice\/Flying-type Pokemon<\/li>\n<li>Weaknesses: Electric,\u00a0Fire,\u00a0Rock, Steel<\/li>\n<li>Potential Fast Attacks:\u00a0Frost\u00a0Breath (Ice),\u00a0Ice\u00a0Shard (Ice)<\/li>\n<li>Potential Charged Attacks: Ancient Power (Rock), Blizzard (Ice), Ice Beam (Ice), Icy Wind (Ice)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Thankfully, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegamer.com\/pokemon-go-cresselia-best-counters\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Psychic-type Legendary Cresselia<\/a>, Articuno is\u00a0one of the more straightforward opponents in <em>Pokemon GO<\/em>. There aren&#8217;t any particularly tricky type matchups to beware, though players should obviously avoid heading into battle with Bug or Grass-type Pokemon, for example.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pokemon-go-articuno-quick-counters-1.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>Given its dual Flying\/Ice typing, Articuno is doubly weak\u00a0to Rock-type Pokemon, so Trainers should try and build a team of Rock-type attackers if they want to be most efficient. Unfortunately, this isn&#8217;t the best opportunity to show off the new <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/pokemon-go-unlock-mega-pidgeot-houndoom-september\/\">Mega Pokemon in <em>Pokemon GO<\/em><\/a>, even if Mega Charizard&#8217;s Fire-typing seems tempting.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Powerful counter options:<\/strong> Tyranitar (Smack Down\/Stone Edge), Rampardos (Smack Down\/Rock Slide) Rhyperior (Rock Wrecker), Alolan Golem (Stone Edge), Golem (Stone Edge), Omastar (Rock Slide), Heatran (Fire Spin\/Stone Edge)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Viable alternatives:<\/strong>\u00a0Dialga, Magnezone, Raikou, Metagross<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Powerhouses like Tyranitar are increasingly common nowadays, thanks to Raid Battles, Community Day events, and\u00a0recent gifts like the <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/pokemon-go-remote-raid-pass-bundle-date-details\/\">one-coin Remote Raid Pass bundle<\/a>.\u00a0So by now, most players should have\u00a0<em>some<\/em> sort of high-level Rock-type options to employ, but for those who don&#8217;t quite have an army of Rock-types, simply focus on dealing extra damage while staying as safe as possible. This is best done by taking advantage of Steel-type Pokemon, like Dialga and Magnezone,\u00a0who can dish out Super Effective damage while hiding safely behind their Ice-type resistances.<\/p>\n<p>As always, players should take note that a\u00a0counter&#8217;s attack moves are ultimately more important than the Pokemon itself. For example, Tyranitar is certainly an incredible counter to Articuno,\u00a0<em>but<\/em>, if and only if it happens to have access to its Rock-type moves. A Tyranitar\u00a0using Bite and Crunch (Dark-type moves) should be avoided as a counter to Articuno, even though players may be convinced that &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/pokemon-go-tyranitar-smack-down-nerf\/\">Tyranitar is a great counter<\/a>.&#8221; And as always, be sure to check the weather; an unexpectedly boosted Articuno may call for an extra teammate or two.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Pokemon GO<\/em><\/strong> is available now on the App Store and Google Play.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/pokemon-manhole-cover-japan\/\">Japanese Prefecture Installs Pokemon Gyarados Manhole Covers<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Articuno flies back into Pokemon GO raids on September 18th, giving trainers another opportunity to catch a shiny version of the icy legendary bird.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":623,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Pokemon GO: Articuno Raid Counters Guide | Game Rant - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Articuno flies back into Pokemon GO raids on September 18th, giving trainers another opportunity to catch a shiny version of the icy legendary bird."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78426"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/623"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78426"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78426\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":78427,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78426\/revisions\/78427"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78426"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78426"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78426"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
