Knowing the latest Sierra counters is key to beating the Rocket Leader boss inPokémon GOin October 2024. Defeating Sierra and her three waves of Shadow Pokemon is no easy task, but it is worth the effort with the extra rewards you’re able to get. While her first Pokémon is always the same, the second and third-party members shift between one of three options, making her quite a challenge.
Similar to when facing Rocket bosses in the past, like Rocket Leader Arlo, you may only take Sierra on after defeating Six Rocket Grunts, obtaining a Mysterious Component from each of them, and forming a Rocket Radar. Since Shadow Pokémon has higher offensive stats, she will make for a tough fight. It will be a lot easier to keep up with her latest lineup and their weaknesses, just like with the newestRaid Boss schedule inPokémon GO.

If you battle Sierra and don’t have the right counters for her second and third-party members, leave the battle and swap your team. you’re able to battle Sierra as many times as you like as long as you’re able.
Each of Sierra’s potential Pokémon has various types, but there are some common weaknesses you may exploit with specific counters for more coverage. For example,Carvanha and Milotic are both weak to Electric-type attacks, meaning adding a counter like Raikou to our party would be good. Another instance is adding a Fairy-type like Togekiss so it can cover the Dark-type Sableye and Houndoom as well as Carvanha.
