Mega Kangaskhan Counters Guide

September 9, 2025

Mega Kangaskhan is a Normal type Mega Raid boss. Best raid counters will be Fighting-type Pokémon, thanks to its double weakness to that type. You cannot catch Kangaskhan in its mega evolved form from the raid. The Mega Raid boss is always catchable in its base form and as such, the CP ranges are for a regular Kangaskhan.

Depending on your levels and counters, we would recommend 3-5 Trainers who are high level, and more if you don’t have optimal teams. This guide will tell you how to beat this Motherly Mega, as well as its optimal stats, moves, and CP range. What’s more, it can be shiny ✨!

How to Get Mega Kangaskhan

In order to get Mega Kangaskhan you will need 200 Mega Energy for the initial evolution. Once you Mega Evolve a Pokémon for the first time, Mega Energy will no longer be required for that specific Pokémon to Mega Evolve again. Instead, the Pokémon will become exhausted after its Mega Evolution and need to rest before being Mega Evolved again.

Kangaskhan can be caught with the following CP values:

2112 – 2200 CP no weather boost
2640 – 2750 CP boosted by Partly Cloudy weather boost

In other words, there is now a cooldown period after you Mega Evolve a Pokémon. You can level up your Mega Pokémon in order to decrease this cooldown period.
