Lumineon Moveset

Lumineon has a mostly Water based moveset, though has Charge Move options to cover one of it’s weaknesses:

Fast Charge
  • Water Gun Water
  • Waterfall Water
  • Blizzard Ice
  • Water Pulse Water
  • Silver Wind Bug
      Due to the high possibility of Lumineon having a Charged Move that counters Grass, this might leave trainers limited to using Electric types to take down this boss as quick as possible. Just pay attention to the recommended counters in the raid lobby to get an idea of which moves Lumineon may have.

    Final Thoughts

    Lumineon is often considered one of the most forgettable Pokémon, and after analysing its challenge rating in Raids, that may likely continue into Pokémon GO as well.

    Hey, I'm Tudor. I've been an avid Pokémon fan since the European release of Pokémon Red and Blue, I chose Blue. From there my love of the franchise grew when Gold and Silver were released, and I was introduced to my favourite Pokémon, Sneasel! In GO, I'm a die hard team Mystic player and enjoy completing various collections such as the lucky dex and getting hundo Mega evolutions. Across all Pokémon games I'm a bit of a casual shiny hunter.
