Read on to get all the tips and tricks.<\/p>\n<h2><b>When is Tornadus (Incarnate Forme) in Pok\u00e9mon Go?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Tornadus (Incarnate Forme) will be in Pok\u00e9mon Go and available to battle in 5-Star Raids from Tuesday 23rd July at 10am until Saturday 3rd August 2024 at 10am<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>There will also be a Raid Hour between 6pm and 7pm on 24th July and 31st July.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure to look at the forecast for this period, as windy weather will give Tornadus (Incarnate Forme) a higher CP rating.<\/p>\n<p>This means its Flying-type attacks will be more deadly, so watch out. Sunny weather will increase the effect of his Grass Knot attack, too.<\/p>\n<p>Summer this year in the UK means that windy and overcast weather is almost certain, so you most likely won\u2019t have a vanishingly small window of opportunity.<\/p> <h2><b>What is Tornadus (Incarnate Forme)\u2019s weakness in Pok\u00e9mon Go?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>As a Flying-type Pok\u00e9mon, <b>Tornadus (Incarnate Forme) is weak to Rock, Ice and Electric moves<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>Rock-type Pok\u00e9mon will be boosted by partly cloudy weather, with snow boosting Ice-types and rain boosting Electric-types.<\/p>\n<p>You will stand a better chance if you can try and battle Tornadus (Incarnate Forme) in these weather conditions, though snow might be out of the question in July and August depending on where you live.<\/p>\n<p>Tornadus (Incarnate Forme) is resistant to Bug, Fighting and Grass-types, and even has double resistance against Ground-types, so you definitely want to avoid bringing any of these along for the best chance.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve got the best picks for which counters to use below, though, so keep reading!<\/p>\n<script src=\"https:\/\/cdn.greenvideo.io\/players\/gv.js\" data-license-key=\"f0cf5e3e9068d9a4affa36d5c8962eaf1a0662ba\"\/> <div style=\"width:50%;min-height:100vh;overflow:hidden;aspect-ratio:16\/9;position:relative;\"> <style><![CDATA[ .gvtext1, .gvtext2 { animation-duration: 5s; animation-iteration-count: infinite; animation-direction: alternate; width:100%; } .gvtext1 { animation-name: gvtext1; } .gvtext2 { animation-name: gvtext2; } @keyframes gvtext1 { 0% { opacity: 1 } 47% { opacity: 1 } 50% { opacity: 0 } 100% { opacity: 0 } } @keyframes gvtext2 { 0% { opacity: 0 } 50% { opacity: 0 } 53% { opacity: 1 } 100% { opacity: 1 } } ]]><\/style> <div style=\"font-family:arial;font-size:smaller;position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;background:rgb(208, 208, 208);border-radius:30px;display:flex;text-align:center;align-items:center;\"> <div class=\"gvtext2\" style=\"position:absolute;\"> Green Video Post Element <br\/>Video ID: \"a7d2f51011412375cfb0b027cc2b90933231ccab\" <br\/>Mix ID: \"\" <br\/>Player ID: \"Tw3-XowQ\" <\/div> <div class=\"gvtext1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"> If the player doesn't appear here within a few seconds, the Player ID or Licence Key (set via IM Green Video settings) might be invalid. <\/div> <\/div> <green-video embed-id=\"Tw3-XowQ\" content-id=\"a7d2f51011412375cfb0b027cc2b90933231ccab\" mix-id=\"\"\/>\n<\/div> <h2><b>Best counters for Tornadus (Incarnate Forme) in Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Below are what we consider to be the best counters for Tornadus (Incarnate Forme) in Pok\u00e9mon Go:<b\/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Shadow Rampardos (Rock)<\/b> \u2013 Smack Down and Rock Slide<\/li>\n<li><b>Mega Rayquaza (Dragon\/Flying) <\/b>\u2013 Dragon Tail and Dragon Ascent<\/li>\n<li><b>Mega Diancie (Rock\/Fairy)<\/b> \u2013 Rock Throw and Rock Slide<\/li>\n<li><b>Shadow Rhyperior (Ground\/Rock) <\/b>\u2013 Smack Down and Rock Wrecker<\/li>\n<li><b>Shadow Raikou (Electric) <\/b>\u2013 Thunder Shock and Wild Charge<\/li>\n<li><b>Xurkitree (Electric)<\/b> \u2013 Thunder Shock and Discharge<\/li>\n<li><b>Shadow Mamoswine (Ice\/Ground)<\/b> \u2013 Powder Snow and Avalanche<\/li>\n<li><b>Zekrom (Dragon\/Electric)<\/b> \u2013 Charge Beam and Fusion Bolt<\/li>\n<li><b>Mega Aerodactyl (Rock\/Flying)<\/b> \u2013 Rock Throw and Rock Slide<\/li>\n<li><b>Therian Forme Thundurus (Electric\/Flying)<\/b> \u2013 Volt Switch and Winbolt Storm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And that\u2019s your lot!
