Pokemon Go Hisuian Typhlosion Weaknesses

As a powerful Fire and Ghost-type Pokemon, Hisuian Typhlosion has good resistance to many attacks since no element deals colossal damage to it. On the other hand, everyone has minor weaknesses, and for this Pokemon, they are Dark, Ghost, Ground, Rock, and Water-type attacks. These types of moves deal modestly increased damage to Hisuian Typhlosion, giving you a good idea of which Pokemon to use against it.

If you like to experiment, you can make a team using the weaknesses of this Pokemon. However, if you have a vast collection of pocket monsters, we have prepared a small list of the best counters to defeat Hisuian Samurott in Pokemon Go:

Tips To Beat Hisuian Typhlosion

Of course, we understand that not every player has such an extensive Pokédex of powerful pocket monsters. So, we also have prepared some tips that will help to win even beginners:

Firstly, you should assemble a team of at least three players. Remember that you can always compensate for the lack of strength with the number of attacks and raid members.
Additionally, we highly recommend that you join the Party. This feature is available to every player starting from level 15 and allows all team members to use a special charged attack, which will compensate for the lack of strength or speed up the battle.
Also, if you don’t have the Pokemon from the list above, you can choose your units with the same movesets. Hisuian Typhlosion is weak against specific elements and movements, so a powerful moveset owner is an advantage but not the basis for victory.
In addition to the other tips, never use Pokemon with Bug, Fighting, Normal, Fairy, Fire, Grass, Ice, Poison, and Steel-type attacks. This boss has resistance to these elements, and Bug, Fighting, and Normal-type attacks are almost useless.

Hisuian Typhlosion’s Moveset

In addition to all of the above, knowing all the movesets of the boss will be helpful to any player. Experienced trainers will be able to understand in advance what abilities their future pocket monster may have. At the same time, newcomers can choose suitable fighters for battle.
