Raid guide
How the fight goes and what to bring.
Latios is Dragon/Psychic, weak to Bug, Ghost, Dark, Ice, Dragon, and Fairy — a long weakness list that makes it one of the friendlier legendary raids. Dragons, Dark-types, and Ice attackers all work. It's duo-able for strong teams. Latios delivers solid Dragon DPS for raids and sees some PvP play; its sister Latias is bulkier and more PvP-focused. A good, low-stress legendary that punches above its rarity.
Latios resists Electric, Fighting, Fire, Grass, Psychic, Water — leave those attackers out even if they are your highest CP.
