Top Zweilous Counters
Since Shadow Pokémon are extremely expensive to power up and require specific events to remove Frustration with a Charge TM, they will NOT be listed as raid counters in this article. That being said, if you have the shadow form of a listed raid counter Pokémon powered up and TMed, use it.
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).

Zweilous Move Sets
Zweilous has access to this set of moves as a raid boss:
| Fast Moves | Charge Moves |
|---|---|
| Bite Dark | Dark Pulse Dark |
| Dragon Breath Dragon | Dragon Pulse Dragon |
| Body Slam Normal |
Zweilous’s best moveset in Pokémon GO is Bite and Dark Pulse, with 10.50 damage per second, and it can deal 208.7 damage before Zweilous faints. This is true when battling in neutral weather.
| Weather | Pro Attacker | Pro Zweilous |
| Sunny/Sunny | – | – |
| Partly Cloudy | – | Boosts Normal type moves |
| Cloudy | Boosts Super Effective Fairy and Fighting type attacks | – |
| Rainy | Boosts Super Effective Bug type attacks | – |
| Snow | Boosts Super Effective Ice type attacks | – |
| Fog | – | Boosts Dark type moves |
| Windy | Boosts Super Effective Dragon type attacks | Boosts Dragon type moves |
Your top attackers will likely have Fairy or Fighting type moves, which are both boosted by Cloudy weather, which works great in your favour. If you’re solo-ing this raid and looking for a bit of help, Cloudy weather is what you’re looking for. However, bear in mind this is a Tier 3 boss so if you’re out with a friend then Zweilous should not be hard to defeat in any weather!
