Cliff is one of the Team GO Rocket leaders that players can beat in Pokémon GO. Create the best team to counter the weaknesses of its Shadow Pokémon.
Cliff, one of the leaders of Team GO Rocket, is set for another challenge in August 2022 from coaches who think they have a shot at beating him in Pokemon GO. Cliff’s team in August 2022 is the same as the Team GO Rocket Battle weekend event on July 9, 2022, and the villain’s team may change in the coming days as it did after the first days of July. Cliff’s team is made up entirely of Shadow Pokémon, and his options for second and third party members can be one of three Pokémon for each slot.
Coaches who want to beat Giovanni in August at Pokemon GO will have to defeat Cliff first. Because Cliff exclusively uses Shadow Pokémon, his team is significantly stronger than Pokémon of the same species in standard or purified form. Those who manage to defeat him will have the opportunity to catch his Shadow Bulbasaur, the flagship Pokémon of the Team GO Rocket leader’s party. Bulbasaur is probably the Pokemon causing the least amount of trouble for players during this battle as its two remaining Pokemon are fully evolved forms.
In addition to Shadow Bulbasaur, Cliff’s party consists of a Shadow Crobat, Venusaur or Omastar for the second Pokemon and Shadow Swampert, Torterra or Tyranitar for the last member. Players will not be able to catch Shadow Pokémon in Pokemon GO fully evolved members of the Cliff team. However, players can capture Cliff’s Shadow Bulbasaur after it is defeated, and the Pokemon has a chance to be Shiny.
How to Beat Cliff in Pokémon GO (August 2022)
Cliff’s Bulbasaur, Venusaur, Crobat, and Torterra are all weak to Ice-type moves, and Omastar, Swampert, and Tyranitar are all weak to Grass-type attacks. These types of Pokemon and Pokemon moves are the safest options to use against Cliff, though players may also want to include a Fighting-type Pokemon as well, as Omastar and Tyranitar also share weaknesses in these types of moves. Cliff’s entire team will be weak against Fire-type Pokémon if he uses Bulbasaur, Venusaur, and Torterra in the same battle. Options like Abomasnow and Machamp in Pokemon GO are great to use during this battle, along with the others listed below.
- mewtwo: Psycho Cut and Ice Beam
- Lapras: Frost Breath and Ice Beam
- Galarian Darmanitan: Ice Fang and Ice Punch
- Zarude: Vine Whip, Power Whip and Dark Pulse
- Torterra: Razor Leaf and Frenzy Plant
- skeptical: Bullet Seed and Leaf Blade
- Victini: Confusion and V-Create
- Magmortar: Fire Whirlwind and Fire Punch
