Pokemon GO Raids offer an excellent opportunity for players to go up against, and even capture, some of the most powerful creatures in the game, including the more hard-to-find specimens, such as Legendary and Mythical Pokemon, Pseudo-Legendaries, Mega Evolutions, Ultra Beasts, and more.

Kyogre is one of the many Legendary Pokemon featured in Pokemon GO. As part of the Max Out season, this creature is returning to Raids during the month of September 2024. For this reason, many Trainers will be looking to utilize this opportunity to go up against Kyogre in battle and earn some rewards, or even obtain it for their collection and put it to further use in later battles. For those trainers, the following guide will provide all the information they need to be successful.

Kyogre Weakness & Resistances

In Pokemon GO, Kyogre is a pure Water-type Pokemon, meaning it has fairly straightforward weaknesses and resistances. Kyogre is resistant to Steel, Water, Fire, and Ice-type Pokemon or moves, meaning it is more favorable in these matchups, so Trainers will want to avoid bringing these Pokemon into battle against Kyogre.

However, Kyogre also has weaknesses to Grass and Electric-type Pokemon and moves, so players should prioritize using these Pokemon in battle against Kyogre. Lastly, Kyogre has increased power in rainy weather, so Trainers may wish to avoid Kyogre Raids in these conditions if possible, so as to not put themselves at any disadvantage.
