Landorus is an incredibly important Pokemon to the metagame and is generally considered to be the best Ground-type option currently available. It’s combination of Ground- and Flying-types make it an interesting matchup and trainers are going to want to focus on fielding their most powerful Ice- and Water-types against the raid boss. While forming a roster, trainers should also keep in mind that Therian is going to be particularly strong against Fire-, Electric-, Bug-, Rock-, Poison-, Steel-, Fighting-, and Cross-types…

Landorus is a pretty tough Battle Raid boss, so even with the right counters trainers are going to want to team up with some friends and take advantage of those bonuses for this big fight.
Keep in mind that trainers don’t need one of these exact Pokemon with the perfect move set in order to succeed, but things will definitely be a bit easier if they have that option. The most important thing is to have a roster of Pokemon with high DPS that can take advantage of Landorus' Ice- and Water- type weaknesses. Luckily, a few of the best options arePokemon who have been relevant in the meta game for years, so the majority of players probably already have at least a few powered up with the correct move set already.
In the coming weeks, players should learn a lot more about what other events are on the way throughout the final weeks of thethe Season of Legends. Be sure to check back in the near future for morePokemon GOstrategy guides, news, and updates. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!
