There are several Pokémon you can expect to fight against in Pokémon Go. Some are tougher than others. For those who want to capture a Galar Stunfisk, your best chance to do so is during a raid. It is a Pokémon that is often used in Great and Ultra League competitions. While some trainers may have a way to defeat him, those looking to add Galarian Stunfisk to their collection may find themselves in trouble. This guide details all of Galarian Stunfisk's weaknesses and the best Pokémon to counter him.
All the weaknesses of Galarian Stunfisk
Galarian Stunfisk is a Ground and Steel type Pokémon. It is weak against Fighting, Fire, Earth, and Water-type moves, but is resistant to Bug, Dragon, Electric, Fairy, Flying, Normal, Poison, Psychic, Rock, and Steel-type attacks. You may find it a little difficult to take down a Galarian Stunfisk, but when you fight it in a raid, you have a little more time to prepare it. We highly recommend using a Fighting or Fire-type Pokémon against it.
The best Pokémon to fight Galarian Stunfisk
The best Pokémon you can use against Galarian Stunfisk will be Mega Y Charizard, Lucario, and Conkeldurr.
Mega Y Charizard is a Fire and Flying type Pokémon. In a raid, it's an ideal choice to use against Galarian Stunfisk, especially to burn his Steel-type armor. The downside is that Galarian Stunfisk has access to the landslide, a strong attack that is super effective against this Charizard. However, the mega evolution's attack boost makes it a worthwhile choice. The best moveset to give Mega Y Charizard is the rapid rotation of the fire and the charged moves burn and overheat.
Next, we have Lucario, a Fighting and Steel-type Pokémon. Since Lucario is also a Steel-type, Galarian Stunfisk will have a hard time hitting him. However, Lucario is weak against Ground-type attacks, making the Ground-type moves Stunfisk knows quite critical. However, Lucario's overall attack should make him a great raid pick. The best moveset to teach Lucario is the fast move counter and charged moves, the aura sphere, and close combat.
The last Pokémon we will recommend is Conkeldurr, the pure Fighting-type Pokémon. Similar to Lucario, Conkeldurr is a powerful Fighting-type capable of inflicting heavy damage on Galarian Stunfisk. However, it won't have the best defense, so you should mainly focus on attacking this Pokémon during the raid. The best move set to teach Conkeldurr is the fast move counter, and the dynamic punch of loaded moves had a blast of concentration.
You must create a full team of six Pokémon to use against Galarian Stunfisk. These are other Pokémon that we will recommend for this battle.
