Pokemon Go Registeel Raid Guide: Counters, Weaknesses, and Strategies

Registeel, the Legendary Steel-type Pokemon from the Hoenn region, is making a comeback in Pokemon Go 5-Star Raids this April 2024. Known for its impressive defense, Registeel can be a tough opponent for trainers to take down. However, by understanding its weaknesses and utilizing the most effective counters, players can emerge victorious and add this powerful Pokemon to their collection.

Registeel's Weakness in Pokemon GO

As a pure Steel-type, Registeel has three primary weaknesses that trainers should focus on:

1. Fire
2. Ground
3. Fighting

When building a team to face Registeel, prioritize Pokemon that can deal damage using moves of these types. Stay away from using Fairy, Ice, or Rock-type Pokemon, as Registeel has an advantage against these types.
