How to beat Mega Slowbro solo in Pokémon GO?
(Image via Pokémon GO's 'X' Account) To conquer Mega Slowbro on your own in Pokémon GO raids is quite tough. It, though, is an achievable goal for the dedicated trainers. Using the right strategies, powerful counters, and more can make a trainer's solo feat possible during the limited-time raid Pokémon GO window, which ends on August 18, 2025. Here is how you can claim your win without having to rely on the team. How to defeat Mega Slowbro solo in Pokémon GO? When playing solo, your choice of attacker is important as it's only top-tier counters that possess the necessary damage in the tight time limit. Two options that would help to make the challenge easier are Dawn Wings Necrozma and Mega Sceptile. These are undisputed champions during a raid. Mega Slowbro Solo 🗡️, Water Gun/Water Pulse, No Weather Boost (Rainy) Dawn Wings Necrozma raid with Moongeist Beam and Shadow Claw can deal massive damage, both with and without the Foggy weather. On the other hand, Mega Sceptile Pokémon GO needs Sunny conditions to shine. Its Frenzy Plant and Fury Cutter can deliver devastating maximum output. Remember that the trainer's level matters here. While Dawn Wings Necrozma must be at level 40 at least, Mega Sceptile must be at level 45 or more to meet the DPS check. Both Pokémon hit hard for whittling down bulk Mega Slowbro before the time runs out. Solo raid tips Pokemon Go to defeat Mega Slowbro Just to have the right Pokémon will not help. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Most Beautiful Women In The World Undo The way they are used is what separates winners from losers. Make sure to start with your chosen attacker, but make sure to fill up the remaining slots with some backup Pokémon. These Pokémon will not see any action if the Pokémon GO raid strategy works. They are instead an insurance, for cases where your main Pokémon fails you in between battles. Pro Tip: Focus on dealing max damage with the primary attacker, right from the start. The goal is to avoid being kicked out of the raid lobby. Attack relentlessly until the health of the primary Pokémon drops critically. Then pause, and heal using Max Potion. Do not let it faint. It will help save some precious seconds, as compared to reviving the Pokémon. Make sure to repeat this process till Mega Slowbro falls. Your speed will be an important key here. A faster win will lead to more Mega Energy being awarded. Note: Mega Slowbro Pokémon GO is available as part of the raid cycle between August 11, 2025, 10 am and August 18, 2025, 10 am.
