Conquer Incarnate Enamorus in Pokémon GO: A Comprehensive Guide
Incarnate Enamorus, a formidable Fairy/Flying-type 5-Star Raid boss in Pokémon GO, presents a challenging encounter. This guide details its weaknesses, resistances, and the optimal counter strategies for a successful raid.
Incarnate Enamorus: Weaknesses and Resistances
Incarnate Enamorus is weak to Electric, Ice, Poison, Rock, and Steel-type attacks (160% effectiveness). However, it boasts significant resistances to Dark, Grass (63% damage reduction), Bug, Dragon, Fighting, and Ground-type moves (39% damage reduction). This necessitates a strategic approach to counter selection.

Enamorus's diverse moveset (including Dazzling Gleam, Fly, Zen Headbutt, and Grass Knot) further complicates counter selection. Fighting, Dragon, Dark, Bug, and Grass-types are generally inadvisable due to its movepool.
