Secure Combat Power (CP) and Solo Strategies
Therian Forme has CPs varying from 2,503 to 2,614 with weather boost and 2,091 without. 50,369 is a scary-looking CP, but with some high-level counters, you can bag this for solo victory. Avoid the attacks, use your charged moves, and defeat this electrifying test.
Battle Tactics and Usage Tips
In the thick of battle, movement is critical. Use double switches, Volt Switch, or U-turn to introduce Thundurus strategically, but once a teammate faints, use that for a free switch. Here, Nasty Plot can establish an opportunity to demolish enemy teams, especially against Grass-types such as Ferrothorn and Tapu Bulu.
On rather tough opponents like Landorus-T, Tornadus-T, and Kartana, Thundurus might switch in to bypass the Stealth Rock or maybe take some chip damage. Adjust your strategy based on the way his team is composed.
A more direct approach with attacks could suit offensive teams, given the speed differences when adopting Greninja, Tapu Koko, and Mega Alakazam.
Adapt to the on-off approach of Thundurus’ strategies and traverse its raid battles with grace; win the battle for a chance to capture this mythical beast.
Welcome to this exciting journey and prepare yourself for the new Pokémon GO world.
