All the Legendary Pokemon Available in Pokemon Go – Pokedex, Types, Counters, and more

Published by

Here is a list of all the legendary Pokemon available in Pokemon Go. You can also find a handy guide on how to counter them.

Legendary Pokémon had been highly anticipated for a long time, and they finally arrived a year after the game’s release. From the flying trio Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres in Red, Blue, and Yellow to the elusive trio in Gen 2’s Gold, Silver, and Crystal, Legendary creatures Raikou, Entei, Suicune, and beyond, fans of the classic games will remember them fondly.

Being a Pokémon Go legendary implies they’re among the most difficult to find and catch in the game. They can be found in a variety of locations, including Legendary Raids, the Go Battle League, and Field Research prizes, but just knowing where they’ll appear doesn’t imply they’ll be simple to catch once you encounter them. Our guide will help you how to counter each legendary in Pokemon Go.
