Pokemon GO: Wooper And Paldean Wooper Weaknesses & Resistances
Wooper and Paldean Wooper are often featured as 4-star raid bosses in events such as Community Day and more. Since Wooper is a dual Water and Ground-type, it is weak to Grass-type moves and resists attacks of Electric, Fire, Poison, Rock, and Steel-type attributes. Regarding Paldean Wooper, it is vulnerable to Ground, Ice, Psychic, and Water-type attacks and can resist Electric, Poison, Bug, Fairy, Fighting, and Rock-type moves in Pokemon GO.
Wooper experiences a Weather Boost in rainy and sunny weather, increasing its power output. And Paldean Wooper exhibits increased power in cloudy and sunny weather. The smart move would be to avoid raid locations with such weather conditions as the raid bosses show more power. One should also use the Pokemon GO Same Type of Attack Bonus (STAB) feature to inflict bonus damage. When a monster’s attack type and innate attribute type are the same, that attack will trigger the STAB effect.
