Congratulations! Your job is to somehow convince this volcanic pupper that it\u2019s time for a nap. <b>Bring Water Types<\/b>\u2014or anything that isn\u2019t made of paper, really. Entei\u2019s fiery tantrums (read: <i>Fire Fang<\/i> and <i>Fire Blast<\/i>) will turn your poor Grass or Ice Pok\u00e9mon into a charcoal briquette collection. Stick to Kyogre, Rhyperior, or Groudon, who laugh in the face of arson.  <\/p>\n<h3>Counter Picks: Who\u2019s Bringing the Fire Extinguisher?<\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s break down your squad options, because \u201cwinging it\u201d is just code for \u201cI enjoy losing\u201d:  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Kyogre<\/b>: The OG water deity. <i>Surf<\/i> and <i>Waterfall<\/i> will make Entei wish it stayed in Johto.<\/li>\n<li><b>Rhyperior<\/b>: Rocks. Bigger rocks. <i>Rock Wrecker<\/i> is just yeeting boulders at a dog. Poetic.<\/li>\n<li><b>Groudon<\/b>: Yes, it\u2019s a Ground type, but <i>Earthquake<\/i> + drama = Entei\u2019s worst day.<\/li>\n<li><b>Terrakion<\/b>: For when you want to punch a volcano. <i>Sacred Sword<\/i> has \u2728<i>style<\/i>\u2728.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Strategy: Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive, and\u2026 Dynamax?<\/h3>\n<p>Entei\u2019s <i>Iron Head<\/i> or <i>Bulldoze<\/i> might catch you off-guard, like stepping on a Lego mid-battle. <b>Dodge charge moves<\/b> unless you enjoy your Pok\u00e9mon cosplaying as toast. Use <b>Weather Ball (Water)<\/b> users like Pelipper if you\u2019re feeling spicy\u2014or just desperate. Pro tip: <b>Cloudy weather<\/b> boosts your Rock moves, while Entei\u2019s <i>Sunny Day<\/i> flex is basically it cheating. Bring friends, because this isn\u2019t a solo mission\u2014it\u2019s a group project where everyone actually <i>tries<\/i>.  <\/p>\n<h3>Rewards: Or, \u201cWhy Did We Just Fight a Skyscraper?\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>Win, and you\u2019ll get Rare Candies, TMs, and the existential satisfaction of toppling a kaiju. Lose, and\u2026 well, at least your smoldering Pok\u00e9mon corpse will make a great campfire story. <b>Pro tip<\/b>: If all else fails, throw a Pok\u00e9 Ball at your screen and pray. Niantic might be watching.<div class='global-div-post-related-aib'><a href='\/news\/does-paul-mullin-still-play-for-wrexham.html' class='post-related-aib'><div class='internal-div-post-related-aib'><span class='text-post-related-aib'>You may also be interested in:<\/span>&nbsp; <span class='post-title-aib'>Does paul mullin still play for wrexham? the answer involves a time-traveling sheep &amp; 17 jars of pickles<\/span><\/div><\/a><\/div><\/p>\n<h2>Dynamax Entei Weaknesses and Expert Tips to Win in Pok\u00e9mon GO Raids<\/h2>\n<h3>Entei\u2019s Weaknesses: Bring a Hose (and Other Useful Things)<\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s face it: Dynamax Entei looks like a flaming disco ball that\u2019s late for its volcano yoga class. To knock this fiery legend back into its Pok\u00e9 Ball nap time, exploit its <b>Water, Rock, and Ground-type weaknesses<\/b>. Yes, that means your Level 40 Kyogre named *SplashZilla* should absolutely crash this party. <b>Rhyperior<\/b>, <b>Golem<\/b>, and <b>Tyranitar<\/b> also work, assuming they\u2019re not busy cosplaying as pebbles. Avoid Grass or Ice-types unless you enjoy watching your Pok\u00e9mon melt faster than a popsicle in a sauna.  <\/p>\n<h3>Tips to Win: Dodging Fire Blast Like It\u2019s Hot Potato<\/h3>\n<p><b>1. Assemble a raid squad, not a book club.<\/b> Roll up with 4-6 trainers using optimal counters\u2014this isn\u2019t the time to test whether your Shiny Bidoof has \u201chidden potential.\u201d<br \/>\n<b>2. Weather matters (no, really).<\/b> Rainy weather boosts Water-types, turning your Kyogre into a literal storm cloud with a grudge. Sunny weather? That\u2019s Entei\u2019s version of chugging a Red Bull.<br \/>\n<b>3. Dodge charged moves like they\u2019re your ex\u2019s texts.<\/b> Entei\u2019s <b>Fire Blast<\/b> and <b>Overheat<\/b> will delete your Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s HP bar faster than a toddler with a juice box. Swipe. That. Screen.  <\/p>\n<div class='global-div-post-related-aib'><a href='\/news\/steve-irwin-son.html' class='post-related-aib'><div class='internal-div-post-related-aib'><span class='text-post-related-aib'>You may also be interested in:<\/span>&nbsp; <span class='post-title-aib'>Discover what Steve Irwin\u2019s son is doing now: the legacy lives on!<\/span><\/div><\/a><\/div>\n<h3>Bonus Absurdity: What NOT to Do<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Don\u2019t challenge Dynamax Entei with a Magikarp.
