POKEMON SHIELD RAIHAN SERIES
Don't bring Ground, Flying, or Dragon types.Though some hardcore fans of the Pokemon series disliked various aspects of the latest entries, Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield, the games still performed very well. Lapras is a special case because it is also partially a Water-type, so you'll want a Grass or Electric Pokémon on hand as well. Melony's Pokémon:Īll of Melony's Pokemon are Ice types, so bring a strong Fire, Fighting, Rock, or Steel Pokémon (preferably Fire), and you decimate them. You'll be given a detector that warns you before falling into a pit so that you can steer yourself in the right direction. Pokémon Shield Gym Mission: This is another mission where you'll need to navigate a collapsible floor. Rock-type attacks are super effective against Fire, Ice, Flying, and Bug, so avoid bringing Pokémon of any of those types. You'll want Pokémon with Ground, Water, Fighting, or Grass moves to easily take them out. Barbaracle is Rock/Water, Shuckle is Rock/Bug, and Coalossal is Rock/Fire. You'll be battling Rock-type Pokémon at Gordie's gym, and three have secondary types as well. You're given a detector that emits a vibration when you get close to a pit, so you know to go in another direction. Pokémon Sword Gym Mission: Like classic games, you'll need to walk across a collapsible floor without falling into the pits. Yamask is also weak against Water, Grass, and Ice, and Gengar is also weak against Ground and Physic. Mimikyu is also weak against Steel types. All Ghost Pokémon are naturally vulnerable to other Ghost and Dark attacks. Yamask is Ghost/Ground, Mimikyu is Ghost/Fairy, and Gengar is Ghost/Poison.

Allister's Pokémon:Īllister specializes in Ghost types, but three out of four of his Pokémon are dual types, meaning they have another type aside from Ghost.

Pokémon Shield Gym Mission: Ride in what looks to be an amusement park ride as you use the left and right thumbsticks to avoid obstacles along your path. Do not bring any Normal, Dark, Ice, Rock, or Steel Pokémon as they are weak against Fighting types.

Pangoro is weak against Fighting, Fairy, and Flying, but is immune to Psychic damage. Fighting Pokémon are weak against Fairy, Psychic, and Flying attacks. Bea's Pokémon:Īll of Bea's Pokémon are Fighting types except for Pangoro, which is Fighting/Dark. Pokémon Sword Gym Mission: Use your left and right thumbsticks while sliding down a slope and use punching gloves to move yourself.
