Primeape is a Tier 3 Raid Boss in Pokémon GO. Primeape is a Fighting type Pokémon, and is best countered by using Psychic and Pokémon: Mewtwo, Hoopa, Alakazam, Espeon, Moltres and Mega Pidgeot to name a few.
Primeape has a raid boss CP of 16475. Primeape can be caught with the following Combat Power values:
- 1239 – 1307 CP (no weather boost)
- 1549 – 1634 CP (Cloudy weather boost)
Primeape should be an easy solo raid for high level prepared trainers, but lower level trainers or those without ideal counters may need to bring a friend.
Reminder: Mega-Evolved Pokémon give other Pokémon special bonuses when brought to a Raid Battle. While a Mega-Evolved Pokémon is on the battlefield, all Trainers’ Pokémon receive an attack boost to all their attacks and gain an additional attack boost if their attack types match the Mega-Evolved Pokémon’s type(s).

Primeape can have the following moves:
Fast moves | Charge moves |
---|---|
|
|
All of Primeape’s Fast moves are Fighting-type moves, and 50% of Charge moves are as well, which can make the entire fight easy and predictable.
However, if Primeape has Ice Punch, your Flying-type counters could be in danger. Fortunately, Night Slash doesn’t deal increased damage to Psychic-type counters, so they’re safe.
- Cloudy weather boosts Primeape’s level in the Catch encounter, but it also boosts Fighting-type moves, so Primeape will deal more damage
- Windy weather will boost all Psychic and Flying counters, which makes it ideal weather for speed-raiding
- Fog will boost Night Slash, and Snow will boost Ice Punch
- Other weather conditions have no notable effects on this fight
