Zacian (Crowned Sword) Raid Guide – Pokémon GO Hub

🔍 Summary:

In Pokémon GO, the Tier 5 Legendary Raid Boss Crowned Sword Zacian is currently available, including its shiny variant. As a Fairy and Steel type, Zacian is particularly susceptible to Fire and Ground-type moves, which players should leverage to defeat it more effectively. Upon defeating Zacian in a raid, players will initially encounter it in its Hero of Many Battles form, which can then be transformed into Crowned Sword Zacian using 1,000 Crowned Sword Energy, provided it knows the Charged Attack Iron Head. This transformation changes its Charged Attack to Behemoth Blade, a powerful Steel-type move exclusive to Zacian.

For capturing Zacian, its CP values range from 2188 without a weather boost to 2735 with a weather boost, assuming perfect IVs. While a trio of high-level players with optimal counters could theoretically defeat Zacian under ideal conditions, a group of 4-6 high-level trainers is recommended for a more reliable victory. Less experienced trainers or those lacking optimal counters should consider forming larger groups.

The best Pokémon to counter Crowned Sword Zacian include strong Fire and Ground types like Primal Groudon, Mega Y Charizard, Heatran, Blaziken, and Mega Garchomp. For players looking to maximize their performance in both PvP and PvE, further detailed strategies and guides are available through dedicated Pokémon GO resources.
