How to beat Sierra in Pokémon GO (November 2024)

To beat Sierra in Pokemon GO During the month of November 2024, you will need to know the various weaknesses of your powerful lineup so you can address them with the right counters. Although this can be a complicated fight, given you need to beat three waves of Shadow Pokémonsome of which switch between multiple options, the effort will be worth it when we consider all the rewards you can get. Specifically, the first Pocket Monster she uses will always be the same, but it's the second and third team members who switch between the multiple options.

If you haven't found Sierra yet, it's because you can only find her in a specific way at first. Just like when hunting Rocket Leader Arlo, Sierra can only be found after initially defeating six Rocket Grunts to obtain a Mystery Component as a reward and gathering them together to create a Rocket Radar. Even when you challenge Sierra, however, your Shadow Pokémon's higher stats will still make this a difficult challenge. However, thwarting her is still possible if you choose the right type of team that can attack the type of vulnerabilities in your own three-member group.

Sierra's Team and Counters in Pokémon GO (November 2024)

Each Pokémon and its weaknesses

To beat Sierra's team in Pokemon GO in November 2024, you will need to prepare counters for your new formation, which includes Ralts, Steelix and Houndoom. The first Pokémon she sends out will always be Ralts, but the last two party members will alternate between three options each at random. For example, she could use Ralts, Milotic, and then Sableye. The variety of party member types differ in their types and weaknesses. So, just like when strategizing against bosses in the Max Mondays lineup, you need to prepare for them according to the table below:

While Sierra's team of seven potential Pokémon varies in terms of weaknesses, you should try to target some of the common weaknesses to get more coverage. For example, Ralts and Gardevoir share the same weaknesses to Ghost, Poison, and Steel-type attacks.so you can start with a Metagross, swap it for another to face your second Pokémon, and send it back to face it against Gardevoir if that's your third Pokémon.

As a second example, you can add a powerful fighting type to your team, like Gen-5 Legendary, to use against Steelix and Houndoom, if she uses both. Don't forget, if you don't have the right team for your specific Sierra lineup, you can leave the battle, swap the right Pokémon for your party, and re-enter.
