Ho-Oh Raid Guide

Ho-Oh

With a double weakness to Rock these will be your key to victory over the rainbow Fire bird in almost any weather conditions and particularly in Partly Cloudy. Shiny Ho-Oh is available from raids and in the right conditions can be duo’d with a strong selection of Rock Pokémon but if you don’t have optimal counters a group of 4+ will be able to tackle it.

Ho-Oh Raid Boss CP is 50,064 and it can have Max Capture CP of:

• 2207 CP (Level 20, perfect 100% IV)
• 2759 CP (Level 25, perfect 100% IV Sunny and Windy weather)
