Beating Team GO Rocket leaders can be sometimes challenging, that's why in this guide i will give you recommended Pokemon and some tips to help you defeat them.
Giovanni
Currently Giovanni is using these Pokemon:
1. Shadow Persian
2. Shadow Nidoking/ Shadow Rhyperior/ Shadow Garchomp
3. Shadow Groudon
Recommended team:
Lucario/Swampert/Kartana
Explanation: You should use a Fighting type Pokemon such as Machamp or Lucario to counter Persian (you can also use Steel type Pokemon like Dialga), Swampert is also a great counter for Giovanni's second Pokemon because of him being a Ground/Water type Pokemon. For your third Pokemon you should use an Electric or Grass type Pokemon such as Kartana to counter Kyogre.
Arlo
Currently Arlo is using these Pokemon:
1. Shadow Cacnea
2. Shadow Charizard/ Shadow Hypno/ Shadow Golurk
3. Shadow Dragonite/ Shadow Scizor/ Shadow Salamence
Recommended team:
Mamoswine/Tyranitar/Chandelure
Explanation: Using a Dark and Rock type Pokemon like Tyranitar counters a lot of Arlo's Pokemon (Charizard, Hypno, Golurk, Dragonite and Salamence), you shouldn't use Tyranitar against Scizor because he is weak to Bug type attacks. Mamoswine will help you defeat Bagon, Dragonite and Salamence because of Ice type effectiveness against Dragon. Instead of Mamoswine you can use other Ice type Pokemon such as Weavile.
Cliff
Currently Cliff is using these Pokemon:
1. Shadow Machamp
2. Shadow Kingdra/ Shadow Aerodactyl/ Shadow Gallade
3. Shadow Tyranitar/ Shadow Cradily/ Shadow Crobat
Recommended team:
Haxorus/Lucario/Metagross
Explanation: Lucario's super-effectiveness against Tyranitar will help you a lot. Metagross is super-effective against few of Cliff's Pokemon, he will counter Pokemon such as Zubat or Aerodactyl. Haxorus counters Kingdra.
Sierra
Currently Sierra is using these Pokemon:
1. Shadow Trapinch
2. Shadow Sableye/ Shadow Honchkrow/ Shadow Milotic
3. Shadow Houndoom/ Shadow Victreebel/ Shadow Alakazam
Recommended team:
Xurkitree/Togekiss/Mewtwo
Explanation: Electric type Pokemon such as Xurkitree will easily counter Tentacool, Honchkrow, Milotic and Sableye. Togekiss will help you defeat Honchkrow and Sableye. Mewtwo is a great all-rounded Pokemon, but he will be certainly effective against Tentacool and Victreebel.
