Pokemon GO's Season of Alola is now well underway and with it comes a bunch of new Pokemon first encountered in the Sun and Moon games, including now, as part of the latest event, Tapu Lele which we have a raid guide for, including its weaknesses and best counters.

The Legendary Pokemon debuts alongside both Formantis and Laurantis as part of the brand new Lush Jungle event, which also features some hefty new research titled "An Akala Adventure".

The event takes place over the course of a week (Tuesday, March 22 - Tuesday, March 29), however, players will have until April 5 to battle and catch Tapu Lele in Pokemon GO Raids.

To give you the upper hand though, below you'll find DualShockers' full Tapu Lele raid guide.

Tapu Lele Pokemon GO Weakness

Tapu Lele shares its type combination with Gardevoir and is a Psychic and Fairy-type Pokemon. This leaves it with three different weaknesses to Ghost, Poison and Steel-type moves.

Alongside these, Tapu Lele has three different resistances. This time to Psychic-type moves as well as even stronger resistances to Dragon and Fighting-type moves, be sure to avoid using these Pokemon in raids.

Best Counters For Tapu Lele in Pokemon GO

Below, you'll find a range of Pokemon that you should consider the best counters to Tapu Lele in Pokemon GO raids and should aim to bring a high level combination of all of them:

Mega Gengar - Lick/Shadow Ball.
Mega Beedrill - Poison Jab/Sludge Bomb
Metagross - Bullet Punch/Meteor Mash
Mega Steelix - Iron Tail/Heavy Slam
Dialga - Metal Claw/Iron Head
Genesect - Metal Claw/Magnet Bomb
Shadow Scizor - Bullet Punch/Iron Head
Excadrill - Metal Claw/Iron Head
Chandelure - Hex/Shadow Ball
Origin Form Giratina - Shadow Claw/Shadow Ball
Shadow Mewtwo - Psycho Cut/Shadow Ball
Gengar - Lick/Shadow Ball
Unbound Hoopa - Astonish/Shadow Ball

Remember, by bringing a Mega Pokemon to the Raid Battles, you will boost the moves of all Pokemon that share the type as the Mega Evolution. So, for example, if you bring Mega Gengar to Tapu Lele raids, all Ghost and Poison-type moves will be boosted.

With this in mind, you should be able to tackle Tapu Lele Raids with 3 to 4 other trainers, providing you abide by the above.
