    Tinkering around how to beat the team rocket leaders? The below-given guide has a list of Pokemon Go Cliff, Sierra, and Arlo counters.

    Pokemon Go Cliff counters

    Pinsir counters

    Pinsir, a Bug-type Pokemon, weak to Fire-, Flying-, and Rock-type moves, however, it can still deal some serious damage with its Fighting-type moves, so the following counters are the best against it.

    BlazikenFire Spin/Blaze Kick
    ChandelureFire Spin/Overheat
    VolcaronaFire Spin/Overheat

    Tyranitar counters

    Tyranitar, one of the strongest Pokemon in Pokemon Go PvP. It uses Dark- and Steel-type quick moves, with Fire-, Rock-, and Dark-type charge moves. Surprisingly, it is weak against Fighting-type moves, which makes Pokemon like Lucario and Machamp excellent choices.

    Articuno counters

    Articuno is in the possession of Cliff, so it won’t be easy. It’s double weak to Rock-type moves though, along with having a standard weakness to Electric-, Fire-, and Steel- types. Avoid using use Ground-type Pokemon as it has a double resistance, while Grass- and Bug- types also not a good choice.

    Houndoom counters

    Groudon is useful against Houndoom. Using Fighting-, Ground-, Rock-, and Water-type Pokemon should do the job, avoid pretty everything else as Houndoom also has a lot of resistance.

    Scizor counters

    Scizor is a Bug-/Steel-type, so Pokemon veterans will know there’s only one type for the job; Fire. Fire-type moves deal double damage, so you just want to throw out the strongest Fire-type Pokemon you have, as long as both the fast and charged move are Fire-type.
