Dialga Raid Counters 1024x576

Dialga Raid

Last month, Niantic unveiled the Pokemon Go July 2022 Roadmap. In the roadmap, Niantic unveiled the Legendary and Mega raids taking place during July. As July comes to a close, the final two raids of the month are now underway. Niantic has revealed the August 2022 roadmap but we will get to that later.

The Dialga raid will be available from July 22nd to July 31st, 2022. Keep an eye out, because you might encounter a shiny Dialga if you take down the Legendary raid. Earlier today, we covered the best Mega Gengar raid counters in Pokemon Go, now let’s discuss the best Dialga raid counters.

Dialga Raid Counters

Going into the Dialga Raid, trainers will need Pokemon with a high defensive stat and type effective attacks. Overall, Dialga is an easy Legendary Pokemon to take down in Pokemon Go. The raid can be easily completed by a team of 3 to 6 trainers; a team of 5 to 9 trainers can take it down quicker and a team of 8 to 20 trainers can shred through it making a better completionist bonus.

Using Mega Pokemon such as Mega Gengar or Mega Lopunny will make the battle a lot easier for most trainers. Ultimately, you will want to use Ground or Fighting-type Pokemon. Be careful, because the raid can be difficult if using Grass, Bug, Poison, Normal, Flying, Rock, Steel, Water, Electric, or Psychic-type Pokemon.

Here are the best counters to overcoming the raid. Some of these recommendations can be substituted out for Pokemon with type advantage or a better move set.
