Top Greavard 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.

Reminder: Mega-Evolved Pokémon give other Pokémon special bonuses when brought to a Raid Battle. While a Mega-Evolved Pokémon is on the battlefield, all Trainers’ Pokémon receive an attack boost to all their attacks and gain an additional attack boost if their attack types match the Mega-Evolved Pokémon’s type(s).

Greavard Move Sets

Greavard has access to this set of moves as a raid boss:

Weather Effects

As you can see, the only weather that will boost your top attackers, Fog, will also boost Greavard as a raid boss. It would be best to use a team of all Dark type attackers as Ghost attackers could be weak to Greavard’s potential movepool.
