Season of Alola is here in Pokemon GO and that means that many new Alola region Pokemon are making their debut in Pokemon GO, including Tapu Koko. This Electric- and Fairy-type Pokemon is a Legendary powerhouse that every Trainer needs on their team. Tapu Koko is currently only available through the Five Star Raid, so here are the Tapu Koko counters and weaknesses that you need to know to take it down and catch it in Pokemon GO.

Tapu Koko Counters and Weaknesses

As mentioned previously, Tapu Koko is an Electric- and Fairy-type Pokemon which means that it is weak against Poison- and Ground-type Pokemon. It is resistant to Bug-, Dark-, Electric-, Fighting-, and Dragon-type Pokemon, so leave those ones at home this time.

Now that we know Tapu Koko’s weaknesses, we can look at what some of the best counter Pokemon are. Here are some counter Pokemon with their moves to consider when fighting Tapu Koko:

      • Sludge Bomb (Charged Move)
