Pokémon GO Mega Glalie Mega Raid: Best Counters & DPS Ranking

Japanese|English

🔥 Damage-Focused Metric (DPS Top 20)

Ranking by raw DPS vs Boss. Glass-cannon Megas can rank high here even if they faint quickly. Cross-check with the Combined Damage & Survivability metric (Sustained DPS) below.

Mega Glalie — ⚡ Top 2 aura-matched Megas

Megas whose aura type overlaps with this boss's type. Top pick: Mega Glalie.

⚡ Mega-Evolution raid bonuses:
・Damage: while a Mega is on the field, all allies get +10% damage (regardless of type). Moves whose type matches the Mega's type are upgraded to +30% instead.
・Catch candy bonus: while you have a Mega evolved, every Pokémon caught gives +1 candy at Base Mega level, or +2 candies at High / Max Mega level (regardless of type).
・Candy XL chance: only triggers when your Mega is at High level or above AND you catch a Pokémon that shares a type with the Mega (type-matched only).
⚡-badged Megas trigger the same-type +30% damage bonus / XL Candy chance against this boss.
Primal Kyogre (Water/Electric/Bug), Primal Groudon (Fire/Ground/Grass) and Mega Rayquaza (Dragon/Flying/Psychic) emit a 3-type aura instead of the standard own-types only.

🛡️ Damage & Survivability Combined (Sustained DPS Top 20)

Sustained DPS = DPS × (1 − exp(−Time To Faint / 60)). Shorter Time To Faint deducts more from raw DPS. With similar damage, resistant Pokémon climb higher. Sort key and cell value both use the boss's average across all move combos (matches the chart's default "Sustained DPS" tab axis). Per-combo values can be inspected via the chart's combo selector.
