Pokemon GO: Get Shiny Tapu Fini Through Raids

Shiny Tapu Fini Pokemon GO

Tapu Fini is considered a prized possession with extraordinary battle prowess. The dual Water and Fairy-type legendary has a maximum Pokemon GO Combat Power (CP) of 3230. Its stat spread comprises 189 ATK, 254 DEF, and 172 STA, making it an endurance-focused fighter. One must note that the monster’s maximum CP boosts notably as a 5-star raid boss, making it an even more dangerous opponent to win against.

Pokemon GO Tapu Fini raid winners can encounter Shiny Tapu Fini, but the Shiny encounter isn’t guaranteed. Raid winners usually encounter just the Standard variants, so one should win numerous raids to boost their chances of a Shiny Tapu Fini encounter. The more raids they win, the faster they may match its Shiny odds.

Pokemon GO trainers must team up with others and avoid solo raids, since the legendary raid boss is extremely powerful. To select the raid counters, one must carefully study the monster’s weaknesses and resistance. It would be highly beneficial if the raid counters possessed the Same Type of Attack Bonus potential moves that fall under Tapu Fini’s weaknesses.
