Snorlax Counters

Since Shadow Pokémon are extremely expensive to power up and require specific events to remove Frustration with a Charge TM, they will NOT be listed as raid counters in this article. That being said, if you have the shadow form of a listed raid counter Pokémon powered up and TMed, use it.

Snorlax Movepool

Zen Headbutt will do some damage to your fighters, but with no Psychic type Charged Attack, and no STAB, it isn’t too much to worry about. Earthquake, Outrage and Super Power will all hit pretty hard, but their typings mean they aren’t Super Effective.

That HP stat of 330 means Snorlax can feel like slow work, but being a Normal type it can[‘t do any Super Effective damage to you. Use optimal counters and watch this beefy lad melt away!
