So here is how to defeat Groudon in Pokemon GO for those wishing to put together a squad to take on this beast.

• Dragon Tail as a quick move.
• Mud Shot as a quick move.
• Fire Blast as a charged move.

Weather conditions

The Pokemon listed above are some of the best choices for facing Groudon as a boss in a Pokemon GO raid. However, there are additional crucial details for this Pokemon GO Groudon Guide that trainers need to be aware of if they plan to battle a standard Groudon owned by an adversary trainer. The weather will have a big impact on how this fight plays out. A Groudon's CP will increase dramatically in sunny conditions, going from the 2,200–2,300 range to the 2,800–2,900 level. Additionally, if Groudon is aware of it, the sun will strengthen its Mud Shot, Solar Beam, and Fire Blast attacks.

Additionally, Groudon has a diverse set of moves that include attacks that will completely destroy the aforementioned Pokemon. In order to get some defensive abilities in any conditions while having a somewhat lower DPS choice, trainers should select:

• Mewtwo uses Ice Beam as the charged move and Psycho Cut as the fast move.
• Gyarados with Hydro Pump as the charged move and Waterfall as the fast move.
