Enamorus has reappeared in Pokemon GO as an Incarnate Form 5-Star Raid boss, requiring strategic team composition to exploit its vulnerabilities effectively.
Enamorus' Return to Pokemon GO Raids
After its initial debut during the Carnival of Love Valentine's Day event, this Legendary Pokémon proves challenging due to its impressive Attack stats. However, its unique Fairy/Flying dual-typing creates exploitable weaknesses for prepared trainers.
Exploiting Enamorus' Weaknesses
As a Fairy/Flying type in Pokemon GO, Incarnate Enamorus takes 160% damage from Electric, Ice, Poison, Rock, and Steel-type attacks. Trainers should note its numerous resistances though:
| Pokemon | Type | Weaknesses | Resistances |
|---|---|---|---|
Incarnate Enamorus
| Fairy/Flying | Poison, Steel, Electric, Ice, Rock | Dark (63%), Grass (63%), Bug (39%), Dragon (39%), Fighting (39%), Ground (39%) |
Optimal Counters Strategy
Despite having five weaknesses, Enamorus' versatile moveset requires careful counter selection. Recommended attackers include:
| Pokemon | Fast Move | Charged Move |
|---|---|---|
 Raikou | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
 Zapdos | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
 Excadrill | Metal Claw | Iron Head |
 Articuno | Frost Breath | Triple Axel |
Raid Battle Recommendations
For successful Enamorus raids:
- Assemble teams of 4+ high-level trainers
- Prioritize Steel, Electric, and Ice-type attackers
- Shadow variants provide 20% attack boost but reduced defense
- Avoid Dragon, Fighting, Dark, Bug, and Grass-types
Shiny Availability
Currently, Shiny Enamorus is unavailable in Pokemon GO. Niantic typically releases Shiny Legendaries in subsequent events, potentially as early as next Valentine's Day.
