Due to Hoop’s tricks, the legendary Zacian and Zamazenta of the galaxy are reaching the third part of the Pokemon GOUltra Unlock event.
From August 20, 2021, 10:00 AM to August 26, 2021, 10:00 AM local time, Zakian will appear as a five-star fighter. In addition, it will have its own dedicated Raid Hour on August 25, 2021 from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM local time.
Appearing in his “Hero of Many Battles” form, the Pokemon Sword mascot will battle against Trainers around the world before his Pokemon Shield counterpart Zamazent enters the fray. As a solo Pre-Pokémon in its “Hero” form, exploiting Zacian’s two primary weaknesses will be key to defeating and capturing it.
Pokemon GO: Zatsian’s Basic Weaknesses and Disadvantages
Since Zacian is the upcoming five-star raid boss in Pokemon GO, a team of players must work together to take him down in battle.
By exploiting its type’s weaknesses and dealing highly effective damage, Pokemon GO trainers can quickly burn through a boss’s HP and give themselves little breathing room against attack gauges.
In his “Hero” form, Zakian has only two weaknesses: Poison-type moves and Steel. To defeat Zacian quickly, players will want to use a fighting game full of Pokemon that can use these types of moves.
If players can also use Pokémon that match their type with the moves themselves, they will receive an attribute bonus of the same type (STAB), which gives an extra boost to damage. With real counter attacks and enough players working together, Zacian should go down easily.
Some of the major moves in Pokemon GO that deal the most effective damage to Zakian are as follows:
Fast movements.
- Bullet Strike (Steel)
- Metal claw (steel)
- iron tail (steel)
- Venom Sting (Poison Type)
- Steel Wing (Steel Type)
- acid (toxic)
Charge moves.
- Sludge Bomb (Toxic)
- Meteor Impact (Steel)
- Iron head (steel type)
- Magnet Bomb (Steel)
- Heavy Slam (Steel)
- Flash Cannon (Steel)
When choosing a counter against Zacian in Pokemon GO, these Pokemon work especially well:
- Ganger / Mega Ganger
- Metagross
- Dialga
- Genesect
- Jirachi
- Agron
- Excadrill
- Mega Baderl (his Mega Energy can be obtained by defeating him as a boss of Mega Red during the Ultra Unlock event)
- rose
- Vensor / Mega Vensor
- Kobalin
- Ampoule
- Besharp
- The scissor
- Vileplume
- Skin Tank
- Lucario
- Magnesium
- Mail metal
This list is not exhaustive, but Pokemon GO trainers hoping to find a starting point to oppose Zacian should be able to use these Pokemon quite a bit.
