Before you charge after this powerful enemy, though, it helps to prepare by knowing its weaknesses and the best Pok\u00e9mon to counter it. As with any powerful creature in Pok\u00e9mon Go, it helps to know the best way to tackle this choice. You want to use a range of attacks against it, and it also helps to bring several friends with you. You'll need their assistance to catch Stakataka and add it to your growing collection. All Stakataka weaknesses in Pok\u00e9mon Go Stakataka is a Rock and Steel-type Pok\u00e9mon in Pok\u00e9mon Go. It's weak against Fighting, Ground, and Water-type moves but resistant to Bug, Dragon, Fairy, Flying, Ice, Normal, Poison, Psychic, and Rock-type attacks. Knowing what Pok\u00e9mon attacks to use against Stakataka is good, but it also helps to know what attacks it can use against your team. You don't want to use a 'mon that can't take a super-effective hit from Stakataka, knocking it out of the fight too early. These are all the attacks Stakataka can use in Pok\u00e9mon Go. Bulldoze (Ground-type) Flash Cannon (Steel-type) Rock Throw (Rock-type) Stone Edge (Rock-type) Take Down (Normal-type) Stakataka can use Ground, Normal, Steel, and Rock-type moves, giving it a decent variety of attacks against your team. Because of these choices and Stakataka's weaknesses in Pok\u00e9mon Go, it's best to use any recommended options, namely Fighting, Ground, or Water-types. The best Pok\u00e9mon to counter Stakataka in Pok\u00e9mon Go The best Pok\u00e9mon to use against Stakataka to counter it will be Groudon, Garchomp, and Mega Heracross. When using a Ground-type Pok\u00e9mon, it's challenging to beat Groudon as a choice. It's easily one of the more powerful creatures you can use in Pok\u00e9mon Go and a top contender for the best Ground-type. Groudon is a must-have choice for this fight against Stakataka, and if you can use the Primal Groudon version, that's even better. The best moveset to teach it for this fight is Mud Shot, Precipice Blades, and Earthquake as its attacks. Next, we have Garchomp, another strong Dragon and Ground-type Pok\u00e9mon you can use against Stakataka. It has always been a powerful Ground-type choice, and it's a solid option for this five-star raid encounter. If you can use Mega Garchomp, it's an even better choice. Its best moveset here includes Mud Shot, Earth Power, and Earthquake. The final Pok\u00e9mon I recommend you use against Stakataka is Mega Heracross, a Bug and Fighting-type Pok\u00e9mon. You only want to use the Mega version as the standard one won't be much of a match against the beast. This may limit your options, but Mega Heracross is a formidable Fighting-type, capable of dishing out heavy damage. The best moveset to give Mega Heracross for this battle is Counter, Close Come, and Earthquake. Although these three Pok\u00e9mon are strong, you still need a full team of six to take down Stakataka in Pok\u00e9mon Go. You can use these other choices to help take down this powerful Ultra Beast. Blaziken Conkeldurr Excadrill Hariyama Keldeo Landorus Lopunny Lucario Machamp Mamoswine Rhyperior Terrakion Ursaluna After defeating Stakataka in this five-star raid, you can catch it and add it to your Pok\u00e9mon Go collection. There won't be an opportunity for you to catch a Shiny version of Stakataka during its debut, however.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stakataka-in-Pokemon-Go.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1237604"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2139"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1237604"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1237604\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1237862,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1237604\/revisions\/1237862"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1237667"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1237604"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1237604"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

Before you charge after this powerful enemy, though, it helps to prepare by knowing its weaknesses and the best Pok\u00e9mon to counter it. As with any powerful creature in Pok\u00e9mon Go, it helps to know the best way to tackle this choice. You want to use a range of attacks against it, and it also helps to bring several friends with you. You'll need their assistance to catch Stakataka and add it to your growing collection. All Stakataka weaknesses in Pok\u00e9mon Go Stakataka is a Rock and Steel-type Pok\u00e9mon in Pok\u00e9mon Go. It's weak against Fighting, Ground, and Water-type moves but resistant to Bug, Dragon, Fairy, Flying, Ice, Normal, Poison, Psychic, and Rock-type attacks. Knowing what Pok\u00e9mon attacks to use against Stakataka is good, but it also helps to know what attacks it can use against your team. You don't want to use a 'mon that can't take a super-effective hit from Stakataka, knocking it out of the fight too early. These are all the attacks Stakataka can use in Pok\u00e9mon Go. Bulldoze (Ground-type) Flash Cannon (Steel-type) Rock Throw (Rock-type) Stone Edge (Rock-type) Take Down (Normal-type) Stakataka can use Ground, Normal, Steel, and Rock-type moves, giving it a decent variety of attacks against your team. Because of these choices and Stakataka's weaknesses in Pok\u00e9mon Go, it's best to use any recommended options, namely Fighting, Ground, or Water-types. The best Pok\u00e9mon to counter Stakataka in Pok\u00e9mon Go The best Pok\u00e9mon to use against Stakataka to counter it will be Groudon, Garchomp, and Mega Heracross. When using a Ground-type Pok\u00e9mon, it's challenging to beat Groudon as a choice. It's easily one of the more powerful creatures you can use in Pok\u00e9mon Go and a top contender for the best Ground-type. Groudon is a must-have choice for this fight against Stakataka, and if you can use the Primal Groudon version, that's even better. The best moveset to teach it for this fight is Mud Shot, Precipice Blades, and Earthquake as its attacks. Next, we have Garchomp, another strong Dragon and Ground-type Pok\u00e9mon you can use against Stakataka. It has always been a powerful Ground-type choice, and it's a solid option for this five-star raid encounter. If you can use Mega Garchomp, it's an even better choice. Its best moveset here includes Mud Shot, Earth Power, and Earthquake. The final Pok\u00e9mon I recommend you use against Stakataka is Mega Heracross, a Bug and Fighting-type Pok\u00e9mon. You only want to use the Mega version as the standard one won't be much of a match against the beast. This may limit your options, but Mega Heracross is a formidable Fighting-type, capable of dishing out heavy damage. The best moveset to give Mega Heracross for this battle is Counter, Close Come, and Earthquake. Although these three Pok\u00e9mon are strong, you still need a full team of six to take down Stakataka in Pok\u00e9mon Go. You can use these other choices to help take down this powerful Ultra Beast. Blaziken Conkeldurr Excadrill Hariyama Keldeo Landorus Lopunny Lucario Machamp Mamoswine Rhyperior Terrakion Ursaluna After defeating Stakataka in this five-star raid, you can catch it and add it to your Pok\u00e9mon Go collection. There won't be an opportunity for you to catch a Shiny version of Stakataka during its debut, however.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stakataka-in-Pokemon-Go.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1237604"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2139"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1237604"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1237604\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1237862,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1237604\/revisions\/1237862"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1237667"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1237604"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1237604"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1237604"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
