Mega Victreebel is a Grass and Poison type Super Mega Raid boss. Best Mega Victreebel raid counters include powerful Fire, , Ice, and Psychic types, with a mixed range of different counters available to help you defeat it.
Victreebel can be caught with the following CP values:
- From 1332 CP to 1389 CP, with no weather boost
- From 1666 CP to 1736 CP with Sunny and Cloudy weather boost
Super Mega Raids require a minimum of 8 trainers to defeat them, and each trainer will need to have a Mega Pokémon in their team. This guide will tell you how to beat this brainy Mega, as well as its optimal stats, moves and CP range.
Mega Victreebel is weak to many popular , Fire and Psychic Pokémon, which dominate the counters table. Reshiram, Salamence, and strong Shadow Pokémon like Shadow Mewtwo, Moltres and Heatran are all great picks you can bring.
As far as Mega Pokémon go, we recommend the strongest one you have, just be sure to bring one. Mega Rayquaza is great, your recently acquired Mega Mewtwo Y as well.
Recommended Megas
Primal Pokémon cannot be used to break shields in Super Mega Raids, so we do not recommend using them as counters. This specifically means do not bring a Primal Groudon or Primal Kyogre to these Raids.

Super Mega Raid Information
During Super Mega Raids the Mega Pokémon can become enraged, and even used shields that dramatically reduce the amount of damage they take. You’ll have to work together to take down these shields, but each Trainer can only take down one shield.
- Once the Mega Pokémon boss activates a shield, a Mega Pokémon from your Raid team will be automatically sent into the battle.
- Your next attack by your Mega Pokémon will be significantly more powerful than usual, allowing you to break down the bosses shield!
Once you and your fellow Trainers have broken enough shields the Raid Boss will return to it’s normal state and you will be able to do normal damage again.
