Raid guide
How the fight goes and what to bring.
Mega Dragonite is Dragon- and Flying-type, and windy weather is listed as its boost. No top counters are provided, so I can’t give you a grounded counter lineup or recommend specific Pokémon for the fight. If a trainer brings a Mega Pokémon, it boosts the other trainers’ attack damage, with a stronger boost for attacks that share its type; Mega Pokémon themselves cannot defend gyms or enter standard GO Battle League leagues. A Mega Raid gives Mega Energy and an encounter with regular Dragonite—not a Mega Dragonite—and that encounter can be shiny. The facts don’t include moves or other details that would support a claim about how useful the catch is afterward.
Mega Dragonite resists Grass, Ground, Bug, Fighting, Fire, Water — leave those attackers out even if they are your highest CP.
FAQ
What is Mega Dragonite weak to?
Mega Dragonite takes super effective damage from Ice, Dragon, Fairy, Rock-type moves. Ice is a double weakness (2.56×), so those attackers clear it fastest.
Can Mega Dragonite be shiny?
Yes — the encounter after this raid can be shiny.
What weather boosts Mega Dragonite?
Windy. Boss moves of the boosted types hit 20% harder (so do yours), and the catch is level 25 instead of 20: 3,387–3,514 CP instead of 2,723–2,824. The 10/10/10 IV floor is the same either way.

As one of your own Pokemon, Mega Dragonite ranks #13 among Dragon-type raid attackers (Tier B) and sits at #33 in Master League. Useful, not essential — raid it if you need the candy or the dex entry.
