Pokemon GO Celesteela Weakness & Counters

Before we get into what the best moveset for Celesteela in Pokemon GO, we have to cover the main part: its weakness and best counters. Well, Celesteela is weak against Fire and Electric moves, taking 160% damage from them. It is, however, very strong against a plethora of other attack types. It takes 63% from Dragon, Fairy, Ground, Normal, Steel, Flying and Psychic moves, and 39% from Grass, Bug and Poison. Your options are pretty narrow, is what I’m saying. So, here’s a list of Pokemon we believe should be excellent against Celesteela.

  • Xurkitree with Thunder Shock or Spark and Discharge
  • Mega Charizard with Fire Spin and Blast Burn
  • Zekrom with Charge Beam and Wild Charge
  • Reshiram with Fire Fang and Overheat
  • Therian Thundurus with Volt Switch and Thunderbolt

Out of all the different attacks this character has at its disposal, probably the best combination is Air Slash (Flying) or Smack Down (Rock) as the Quick Attack and Heavy Slam (Steel) as the Charged Attack.
