Fortunately, Azumarill actually only takes normal damage from Steel attacks due to Water being resistant to Steel. Lucario’s especially useful in the right scenario, being resistant to both Dark and Dragon, but do note that Hydreigon does have access to a few Fire-type attacks and a powerful Fighting-type move in Focus Blast.Įven without Steel Typing, Hydreigon’s Flash Cannon can still be a problem if you haven’t trained your Pokemon fully. For these raids, Fighting types are great, as they’ll do supereffective damage against Steel and will also be resistant to Hydreigon’s Dark-type moves. On the off-chance that you do find a Steel-type Hydreigon, then you’ll need to be careful as it may have Flash Cannon.

With that being said, you can prepare for the raid to an extent by training Pokemon that are resistant to Hydreigon and Dragapult’s original typing. Some types will be more difficult than others, and depending on the Pokemon you’re using, they may be difficult enough that you’ll have to bring out something else instead. This is important to note because, unlike the Cinderace or Charizard raids, you can’t rely on just one Pokemon and expect the same results every time you do the raid. Similar to the Tyranitar and Salamence raids, Hydreigon and Dragapult will both appear with a random Tera type when you check the den. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Hydreigon and Dragapult Raid Guide Here’s what you need to know about both raid events.
