Enamorus Incarnate Forme is a Flying and Fairy-type Pokémon in Pokémon Go. It is weak against Electric, Ice, Poison, Rock, and Steel-type attacks but resistant against Bug, Dragon, Fighting, Ground, Dark, and Grass-type moves.

Enamorus has no preferred weakness, so any Pokémon with Electric, Ice, Poison, Rock, and Steel-type moves are your best choices. To help curate your team more, it’s important to know what Enamorus can use in this fight: Fairy Wind, Astonish, Zen Headbutt, Fly, Dazzling Gleam, and Grass Knot. Enamorus makes its debut in Elite Raids and the Carnival of Love, so expect a hefty challenge, and that means bringing other players with you to work together and defeat it.

The best Pokémon you should use against Enamorus are Steel-types such as Metagross, even though they are weak against Astonish. However, other Rock and Electric-type Pokémon, like Rampardos, Rhyperior, and Raikou, would be a good choice. Although Enamorus is a glass cannon in combat, it can withstand the heaviest attacks during a raid. You can still expect it to do well during the Master and Ultra League cups in Pokémon Go.

Best Pokémon counters to Enamorus Incarnate Forme in Pokémon Go

When picking the best Pokémon against Enamorus Incarnate Forme, I know Metagross, Rhyperior, and Mamoswine are your best choices.

As mentioned, Metagross is a Steel and Psychic-type Pokémon in Pokémon Go. Not too many attacks can damage Metagross, but it is weak against Enamorus’ one Ghost-type attack, Astonish. Thankfully, this isn’t a huge ding against Metagross, and it stands out as one of the best options you should expect to use during these raid battles. Make sure to teach Metagross the fast move Bullet Punch and the charged moves Meteor Mash and Earthquake.

Next we have Rhyperior, a Ground and Rock-type Pokémon. Whenever I consider a Rock-type Pokémon to use in a Pokémon Go raid, my go-to option is Rhyperior, and it’s a stand-out choice against Enamorus. Unfortunately, it is weak against Enamrous’ Grass Knot attack, which will be a massive disadvantage during a raid. The best moveset to teach Rhyperior is the fast move Smack Down and the charged moves Rock Wrecker and Stone Edge.

The final Pokémon I recommend to counter Enamorus is Mamoswine, a Rock and Ice-type Pokémon. Like Enamorus, Mamoswine is a glass cannon and can’t take too much punishment during a raid battle. However, it can do a tremendous amount of damage in nearly any Pokémon Go battle in a short time, making it a solid option to help chip down Enamorus’ health. The best moveset to teach Mamoswine is the fast move Mud-Slap and the charged moves Stone Edge and High Horsepower.

You need to use a full six Pokémon team when battling against Enamorus Incarnate Forme during a raid. Here’s a list of several other Pokémon you can use to fill out the rest of your Pokémon Go team.

  • Aerodactyl
  • Diance
  • Electrivire
  • Excadrill
  • Galarian Darmanitan
  • Gengar
  • Jirachi
  • Magnezone
  • Manectric
  • Melmetal
  • Mewtwo
  • Nihilego
  • Raikou
  • Rampardos
  • Rayquaza
  • Tyranitar
  • Weavile
  • Xurkitree

You can catch Enamorus Incarnate Forme after defeating it in a raid, likely alongside other Pokémon Go friends. We can confirm that Enamorus Incarnate Forme’s debut does not have a Shiny version available. I expect Niantic to release the Shiny form when it next appears in a future event.
