Banette Raid Counters Guide

Banette

Banette is a pure Ghost type Tier 3 Raid boss in Pokémon GO. Its best counters are strong Dark types and Ghost types. It can be shiny!

After the Raid, Banette can be caught with the following CP values:

• 1244 – 1313 CP at level 20, no weather boost
• 1555 – 1642 CP at level 25, with Fog weather boost

It is an easy solo for high-level trainers, but lower-level trainers or those without ideal counters may want to bring a friend or two.
