Conquer Incarnate Enamorus in Pokémon GO: A Comprehensive Guide
Incarnate Enamorus, a formidable Fairy/Flying-type 5-Star Raid boss in Pokémon GO, presents a challenging encounter. This guide details its weaknesses, resistances, and the best counters to ensure victory.
Incarnate Enamorus: Strengths and Weaknesses
Incarnate Enamorus's dual typing grants it weaknesses to Electric, Ice, Poison, Rock, and Steel-type attacks (160% effectiveness). However, it boasts significant resistances to Dark, Grass (63% damage reduction), Bug, Dragon, Fighting, and Ground-type moves (39% damage reduction).
| Pokémon | Type | Weaknesses | Strong Against | Resistances |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 Incarnate Enamorus | Fairy/Flying | Poison Steel Electric Ice Rock | Dragon Fighting Dark Grass Poison Bug Ghost Dark Ground Rock Water | Grass Fighting Bug Dragon Dark |
Enamorus's diverse moveset (including Dazzling Gleam, Fly, and Zen Headbutt) limits the effectiveness of certain counter types. For example, Fighting, Dragon, Dark, Bug, and Grass types are generally less effective. Rock types are vulnerable to its Grass Knot charged attack.
Top Counters for Incarnate Enamorus
Prioritize Steel, Electric, and Ice-type Pokémon with same-type attack bonus (STAB) moves. Here are some excellent choices:
| Pokémon | Fast Move | Charged Move |
|---|---|---|
 Raikou | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
 Zapdos | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
 Magnezone | Volt Switch | Wild Charge |
 Excadrill | Metal Claw | Iron Head |
 Xurkitree | Thunder Shock | Discharge |
 Melmetal | Thunder Shock | Double Iron Bash |
 Articuno | Frost Breath | Triple Axel |
 Manectric (Mega or base form) | Thunder Fang | Wild Charge |
 Electivire | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
 Aerodactyl (Mega or base form) | Rock Throw | Rock Slide |
Consider secondary typings; Metagross, for instance, is weak to Enamorus's Astonish. Aerodactyl is an exception, as its Flying typing negates Grass Knot's effectiveness.
Raid Strategy
For 5-Star Raids, coordinate with at least four players using the recommended counters. Utilize Shadow Pokémon for a potential attack boost, but be mindful of their reduced defense.
Shiny Enamorus
Currently, Shiny Incarnate Enamorus is unavailable in Pokémon GO. Its debut is anticipated in a future event.
