A trio of Ultra Beasts have returned to Pokemon Go for a limited time. Xurkitree, Buzzwole, and Pheromosa are back as five-star Raid bosses from May 13-19. Each of these Pokemon will appear exclusively in a particular region of the world, but if you have friends around the globe, you can still participate in those Raids using a Remote Raid Pass.
Here are some tips to help you defeat and catch Xurkitree before it leaves Raids again. And for a look at what else is happening in the game this month, be sure to check out our Pokemon Go May events roundup.
While most other Ultra Beasts are dual types, Xurkitree is pure electric, which means the extradimensional Pokemon only has one true weakness: ground types. Not only will ground Pokemon deal super-effective damage to Xurkitree, they’ll take reduced damage from the Ultra Beast’s electric attacks, making them your best choice.
Although no other type is super-effective against Xurkitree, a few others like grass and dragon resist electric attacks, which means they’ll take half as much damage from these moves. This makes them good alternatives to use if you don’t have enough ground Pokemon to fill out your team.
