Trainers who want to breeze through the Raid Hour and complete as many challenges as possible in the 60 minute timespan will need to have a very strong roster of Pokemon prepared. To help with that, consult this list of the most effectivePokemon GOcounters for Virizion.
Keep in mind that Virizion is a Grass/Fighting-type, so it is going to be extra weak to Flying-type counters. That is what players will really want to focus on while constructing a counter roster.
Volcarona - Fire Spin/Hurricane
Latios - Zen Headbutt/Psychic
There are lots of other acceptable counters, but players who want to get through the fight with the least resistance should try hard to power up some of thesemeta-relevant Pokemonfor the highest DPS possible.
