Buzzwole is a Bug and Fighting type 5-Star Raid boss. Best Buzzwole counters include powerful Fairy, Fire, Flying, and Psychic types, with a mixed range of different counters available to help you defeat it. It is double-weak to Flying, so you should prioritize them as counters.

It can be shiny!

Buzzwole Raid Boss CP is 44654, and you can catch it in the following CP Ranges:

  • 1894 CP to 1977 CP at Level 20, no weather boost
