Conquer the Shadow Regirock in Pokémon GO! This powerful 5-Star Shadow Raid boss is back, but with the right counters, victory is within reach. This guide details Shadow Regirock's weaknesses, optimal counters, and raid strategies.
Shadow Regirock, a pure Rock-type Pokémon, shares the same weaknesses as its standard form. It's highly vulnerable to Ground, Steel, Fighting, Grass, and Water-type attacks (160% damage). Conversely, it resists Normal, Poison, Flying, and Fire-type moves (63% damage). Strategize accordingly!
Maximize your damage output with these top-tier counters:
| Shadow Regirock Counter | Type | Fast Attack | Charged Attack |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kartana | Grass & Steel | Razor Leaf | Razor Blade |
| Pheromosa | Bug & Fighting | Low Kick | Focus Blast |
| Tsareena | Grass | Low Kick | Grass Knot |
| Conkeldurr | Fighting | Magical Leaf | Dynamic Punch |
| Breloom | Grass & Fighting | Counter | Dynamic Punch |
| Machamp | Fighting | Counter | Dynamic Punch |
| Galarian Zapdos | Fighting & Flying | Counter | Close Combat |
| Roserade | Grass & Poison | Razor Leaf | Grass Knot |
| Sirfetch’d | Fighting | Counter | Close Combat |
| Rillaboom | Grass | Razor Leaf | Grass Knot |
While Water and Steel types are super-effective, Shadow Regirock's diverse moveset (including Stone Edge, Zap Cannon, and Earthquake) can quickly neutralize them. Prioritize counters resistant to these attacks or those that take neutral damage.
Remember: Shadow Pokémon have a 20% Attack boost but a 20% Defense reduction. High-DPS movesets are crucial for efficient damage. Utilize Same-Type Attack Bonuses (STAB) for an additional 20% damage boost.
For optimal results, assemble a raid team of at least four Level 40 players or higher. Larger teams (up to 20 players) significantly increase your chances of success.
Shadow Regirock raids are active throughout February 2025 weekends:
The good news? Shiny Shadow Regirock is a possibility! The shiny rate for 5-Star Raid bosses is approximately 1 in 20.
Prepare your team, coordinate your attacks, and get ready to capture this formidable Shadow Pokémon!
