This is the first time these Formes have appeared in the game.The first of this new trio to appear in battle is none other than Therian Forme Thundurus, followed by Tornadus and then, most likely, Landorus.With that in mind, let’s check out Therian Forme Thundurus weakness and how to take it down inPokemon GO.

Thundurus has an unusual typing, being joint Flying and Electric-type. This leaves it with two major weaknesses exploit - Rock and Ice. Let’s take a look at the best counters for Therian Forme Thundurus raids.
Best Counters For Therian Forme Thundurus Weakness
As stated, Therian Forme Thundurus has weaknesses to both Ice and Rock-type Pokemon.
In terms of Mega PokemonÂMega Abomasnowis the only real viable option. Unfortunately, however, it does suffer double damage against Thundurus' Flying-type moves. It still could be worth the risk though, as it will provide a boost to other trainers Ice-type Pokemon.
Rock-type Pokemon are the best bet here. Consider bringingRhyperior, Rampardos, TyranitarandTerrakionfrom this typeset, just be aware of Thundurus' Fighting-type move which will deal considerable damage to these Pokemon.
Aside from Rock-type Pokemon, players should bring Ice-types to Therian Forme Thundurus raids.Galarian Darmanitan,ÂMamoswine,ÂWeavileand Glaceonare your top four picks here.
Mega Abomasnow - Powder Snow/Weather BallRhyperior - Smack Down/Rock WreckerRampardos - Smack Down/Rock SlideTyranitar - Smack Down/Stone EdgeTerrakion - Smack Down/Rock SlideGalarian Darmanitan - Ice Fang/AvalancheMamoswine - Powder Snow/AvalancheWeavile - Ice Shard/AvalancheGlaceon - Frost Breath/Avalanche
