Therian Forme Tornadus Weakness Pokemon GO

Like its Incarnate Forme counterpart, Therian Forme Tornadus is a pure Flying-type Pokemon which is great news for trainers.

This means it has two major weaknesses to exploit - Rock and Ice. Let's take a look at the best counters for Therian Forme Tornadus raids.

Best Counters For Therian Forme Tornadus Weakness

As stated, Therian Forme Tornadus has a pair of weakness that players should look to exploit - Ice and Rock.

Both of these typings have an abundance of strong Pokemon - including one Mega Evolution - Mega Abomasnow. While it's a little risky, given Abomasnow's weakness to Flying-type moves, bringing it to raids will buff all other Ice-type Pokemon.

Speaking of which, there are four key Ice-types you should aim to bring. They are - Galarian Darmanitan, Mamoswine, Weavile and Glaceon.

Just as good as the Ice-type Pokemon is the Rock-types. Again, there are another four players should look at bringing - Rhyperior, Rampardos, Tyranitar and Terrakion.

You can find the best movesets below:

Mega Abomasnow - Powder Snow/Weather Ball
Rhyperior - Smack Down/Rock Wrecker
Rampardos - Smack Down/Rock Slide
Tyranitar - Smack Down/Stone Edge
Terrakion - Smack Down/Rock Slide
Galarian Darmanitan - Ice Fang/Avalanche
Mamoswine - Powder Snow/Avalanche
Weavile - Ice Shard/Avalanche
Glaceon - Frost Breath/Avalanche

It's recommended that players have at least three/four trainers with a party of the above counters at high levels.
