How to Beat Dynamax Entei in Pokémon GO: Top Counters and Battle Strategies
When the Fire Doggo Gets Too Big for Its Boots
So, you’ve stumbled upon a Dynamax Entei that’s roughly the size of a small apartment building and is spewing enough fire to rival a dragon’s sneeze. Congratulations! Your job is to somehow convince this volcanic pupper that it’s time for a nap. Bring Water Types—or anything that isn’t made of paper, really. Entei’s fiery tantrums (read: Fire Fang and Fire Blast) will turn your poor Grass or Ice Pokémon into a charcoal briquette collection. Stick to Kyogre, Rhyperior, or Groudon, who laugh in the face of arson.
Counter Picks: Who’s Bringing the Fire Extinguisher?
Let’s break down your squad options, because “winging it” is just code for “I enjoy losing”:
- Kyogre: The OG water deity. Surf and Waterfall will make Entei wish it stayed in Johto.
- Rhyperior: Rocks. Bigger rocks. Rock Wrecker is just yeeting boulders at a dog. Poetic.
- Groudon: Yes, it’s a Ground type, but Earthquake + drama = Entei’s worst day.
- Terrakion: For when you want to punch a volcano. Sacred Sword has ✨style✨.
Strategy: Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive, and… Dynamax?
Entei’s Iron Head or Bulldoze might catch you off-guard, like stepping on a Lego mid-battle. Dodge charge moves unless you enjoy your Pokémon cosplaying as toast. Use Weather Ball (Water) users like Pelipper if you’re feeling spicy—or just desperate. Pro tip: Cloudy weather boosts your Rock moves, while Entei’s Sunny Day flex is basically it cheating. Bring friends, because this isn’t a solo mission—it’s a group project where everyone actually tries.
Rewards: Or, “Why Did We Just Fight a Skyscraper?”
Win, and you’ll get Rare Candies, TMs, and the existential satisfaction of toppling a kaiju. Lose, and… well, at least your smoldering Pokémon corpse will make a great campfire story. Pro tip: If all else fails, throw a Poké Ball at your screen and pray. Niantic might be watching.
Dynamax Entei Weaknesses and Expert Tips to Win in Pokémon GO Raids
Entei’s Weaknesses: Bring a Hose (and Other Useful Things)
Let’s face it: Dynamax Entei looks like a flaming disco ball that’s late for its volcano yoga class. To knock this fiery legend back into its Poké Ball nap time, exploit its Water, Rock, and Ground-type weaknesses. Yes, that means your Level 40 Kyogre named *SplashZilla* should absolutely crash this party. Rhyperior, Golem, and Tyranitar also work, assuming they’re not busy cosplaying as pebbles. Avoid Grass or Ice-types unless you enjoy watching your Pokémon melt faster than a popsicle in a sauna.
Tips to Win: Dodging Fire Blast Like It’s Hot Potato
1. Assemble a raid squad, not a book club. Roll up with 4-6 trainers using optimal counters—this isn’t the time to test whether your Shiny Bidoof has “hidden potential.”
2. Weather matters (no, really). Rainy weather boosts Water-types, turning your Kyogre into a literal storm cloud with a grudge. Sunny weather? That’s Entei’s version of chugging a Red Bull.
3. Dodge charged moves like they’re your ex’s texts. Entei’s Fire Blast and Overheat will delete your Pokémon’s HP bar faster than a toddler with a juice box. Swipe. That. Screen.
Bonus Absurdity: What NOT to Do
- Don’t challenge Dynamax Entei with a Magikarp. Flailing on concrete *is* a bold strategy, but this isn’t the Splash Olympics.
- Don’t forget revives. Fainting 12 Pokémon in a row isn’t “building character,” it’s a cry for help.
- Don’t panic if Entei roars. It’s just practicing its heavy metal vocals. Headbang respectfully and throw another Rock Slide.
Now go forth, throw those Premier Balls like confetti, and remember: Entei’s just a giant fiery dog. Someone get the leash.
