Pokemon GO’sholiday events are still raging on and today’s special activities include another opportunity toencounter Regice in tier 5 Battle Raids. The Ice-type Legendary has a high defense, but with the right roster of challengers and a few friends players should have no trouble taking it down.
Regice may not bethe most meta-relevant of the Reg-trio, but it’s still a useful Pokedex entry and a fine choice for certain Battle Raids.Pokemon GOplayers will likely want to catch at least a few of these to give themselves some options in future battles. That is going to mean busting out the best Fire- Steel, and Fighting-types for the Raid.

Regice is weak to Fire, Steel, Fighting, and Rock; but the majority of the best counters are going to come from the Fire-types. That said, a strong Metagross with Bullet Punch and Meteor Mash is the top pick for this Battle Raid and players should consider using a few TMs to get a handful of those ready if they have the resources to spare.
After Metagross, players will want to opt for their best Fire-types. Moltres, Chandelure, and Entei are all great choices for this Battle Raid, but it’s not a dealbreaker if trainers have to go with Charizard or Blaziken instead.
