Conquer Incarnate Enamorus in Pokémon GO: A Comprehensive Guide
Incarnate Enamorus, a formidable Fairy/Flying-type 5-Star Raid boss in Pokémon GO, presents a challenging encounter. This guide details its weaknesses, resistances, and the optimal counter strategies for a successful raid.
Incarnate Enamorus: Weaknesses and Resistances
Incarnate Enamorus is vulnerable to Electric, Ice, Poison, Rock, and Steel-type attacks (160% effectiveness). However, it boasts significant resistances to Dark and Grass-type moves (63% damage reduction), along with Bug, Dragon, Fighting, and Ground-type moves (39% damage reduction).
| Pokémon | Type | Weaknesses | Strong Against | Resistances |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 Incarnate Enamorus | Fairy/Flying | Poison Steel Electric Ice Rock | Dragon Fighting Dark Grass Poison Bug Ghost Dark Ground Rock Water | Grass Fighting Bug Dragon Dark |
Enamorus' diverse moveset (including Dazzling Gleam, Fly, and Zen Headbutt) necessitates careful counter selection. Fighting, Dragon, Dark, Bug, and Grass-types are generally inadvisable due to type matchups. Even Rock-types are vulnerable to its Grass Knot charged attack.
Top Incarnate Enamorus Counters
Prioritize Steel, Electric, and Ice-types with same-type attack bonus (STAB) moves. Excellent choices include:
| Pokémon | Fast Move | Charged Move |
|---|---|---|
 Raikou | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
 Zapdos | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
 Magnezone | Volt Switch | Wild Charge |
 Excadrill | Metal Claw | Iron Head |
 Xurkitree | Thunder Shock | Discharge |
 Melmetal | Thunder Shock | Double Iron Bash |
 Articuno | Frost Breath | Triple Axel |
 Manectric (Mega or base form) | Thunder Fang | Wild Charge |
 Electivire | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
 Aerodactyl (Mega or base form) | Rock Throw | Rock Slide |
Consider secondary typings; Metagross' Psychic typing makes it vulnerable to Astonish. Aerodactyl is an exception, its Flying type negating Grass Knot's effectiveness.
Raid Strategy
Successful 5-Star Raids require coordinated teams of at least four high-level players using the recommended counters. Time is limited, so preparation is key. Shadow Pokémon offer a significant attack boost but suffer reduced defense.
