Hello students! My name is Professor Geekbeak, and today, I wish to draw attention to Reshiram. Reshiram is not only one of this professor’s favorite legendary, but a fire type attacker worthy of the legendary moniker, both in PvP and PvE. Grab your notebooks, class is in session. For those who wish to do their research independently, our raw data can be found here. And for those who wish for a simple visual guide, go ahead and take a look at the below visual guide by CaptGoldfish.

Course Schedule

This raid will take place from June 3rd to June 9th. It will be preceded by Mega Medicham and Tapu Fini, coincide with Mega Audino, and be followed by Mega Lopunny and Zekrom.

The dragon typing of Reshiram protects it from its usual fire weakness, and one should be careful of Draco Meteor, as it will hit hard, and can be super effective on some of the best counters.

Reshiram’s moveset includes the following charge moves:

• Stone Edge
• Overheat
• Crunch
• Draco Meteor
• Fusion Flare

<p>The Dean’s List consists of the top 5 counters to <strong>Reshiram</strong>. As always, the Valedictorian, Salutatorian, and the Third Ranked will have their best moveset alternatives in a table with their rankings and a table detailing their defensive prowess against the charge moves listed above.</p>

<h3>Defensive Grades for Top 3</h3>

<p>We here at Pokebattler Pok&eacute;mon Research Institute can’t expect you to have the best counters every time. So, here are some of our other best options, most of which will be easier to find than the members of the Dean’s List.</p>

<p>Of course, besides our 10 best counters, there are plenty of Pok&eacute;mon that also work against <strong>Reshiram</strong>. Here are a few star choices, worthy of praise.</p>

<p>Sometimes, the weather can be your most powerful ally. In certain weather conditions, certain Pok&eacute;mon on our list excel. The most transformative cases are noted below.</p>

Overall, Reshiram is tough to crack, but possible. It hits very hard, and will not let up, especially with that powerful Dragon typing. Of course, if you wish to do more research on your box’s best Pokémon for the job, Pokebattler.com itself can be a great help! Remember, the best counter is the one you have powered up and ready to go. I grant extra credit to those who use their best friend bonus and the weather to their advantage. Class dismissed!
