Hisuian Qwilfish 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. The figures in our database for DPS and TDO are calculated using Level 40 Pokémon with perfect IVs.

Moveset

If the Qwilfish you are battling against has Ice Beam or Aqua Tail, your Ground types won’t appreciate it. But you should be fine taking it down even if it has those moves, with your party of 6. 

And that’s all, Good luck with your raids and until next time, trainers!
