All Mega Salamence Weaknesses and Top Counters in Pokémon Go

Mega Salamence has finally arrived in Pokémon Go. It’s part of the “Twinkling Fantasy” event. This event shows off Dragon-types and Fairy-types in the game.

Mega Salamence Shakes Things Up

Mega Salamence changed the game when it came out in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. Before evolving, Salamence could lower the attack of other Pokémon. After evolving, it got even stronger. Its Ability, Aerilate, changed its Normal-type moves to Flying-type.

Pokémon Go’s Mega Evolution

In Pokémon Go, Mega Salamence is super strong, even without Abilities. But, you can only use it in Raids or against Team Go Rocket. You need Salamence Mega Energy to do this.

Players must beat Mega Salamence in Mega Raids to get lots of Mega Energy. Be ready to face a tough battle. You’ll need your best team.

Mega Salamence’s Weaknesses

Mega Salamence stays a Dragon/Flying type. It keeps the same weaknesses as the regular Salamence. This includes being weak to Rock, Dragon, and Fairy-type moves. Ice-type attacks hurt it even more.

How to Beat Mega Salamence

Knowing how to hit Mega Salamence hard is crucial. It has a lot of different moves. So, it can be hard to know what will come at you.

Pokémon that can take a hit and use Ice-type moves work well. Walrein, Mamoswine, and Avalugg are good choices. They can handle Flamethrower from Mega Salamence and hit back hard.

Fairy-type Pokémon are also great. Gardevoir, Togekiss, and the Alolan Island Guardians can keep attacking. Mega Salamence can’t hit them as hard, letting them keep up the fight.

Mega Salamence brings a new challenge to Pokémon Go. With the right team, you can defeat it. Remember these tips when facing this mighty foe in battle.
