After a lot of interruption Regirock, Regice and Registeel are back in Pokémon GO for June 2022. The Regi trio return for just over two weeks, departing on June 17, giving players another chance against these mighty beasts. If you didn't have one in your collection before, now is the time. And you might want to give it a try even if you already have a few, because there might be a special surprise waiting for you on the dating screen. But to get there, you have to beat it, so here are all the best Regirock, Regice, and Registeel raid counters in Pokémon GO for June 2022.
The best Regirock counters in June 2022
Let's start with the Regirock defensive beats. Using powerful Rock-type moves, as the name suggests, you will need powerful Steel, Water, Fighting, and Grass-type counters. We break down some currents in the chart below, but keep reading for some additional tips and the answer to the all-important question of whether you can catch Shiny Regirock in June 2022.
Pokémon | fast attack | Charged Attack |
Metagross | Punch | Meteor mash |
Competition durr | Speedometer | Dynamic Punch |
Lucario | Speedometer | aura sphere |
Breloom | Speedometer | grass ball |
Landorus (Therian) | mud shot | Earthquake |
Kyogre | Cascade | Surf |
And if you've already frustrated them, you can use Shadow Metagross with the above move, Shadow Machamp with Karate Chop and Dynamic Punch, Shadow Swampert with Mud Shot and Hydro Cannon, or Shadow Torterra with Razor Leaf and Frenzy Plant also or instead.
For your Mega Pokemon, if you want to use one, we recommend Mega Blastoise with Water Gun or Hydro Cannon or Mega Venusaur with Vine Whip and Frenzy Plant. So now you have the best Regirock raid counters in June 2022 but can it be brilliant?
Can Regirock be shiny in June 2022
Yes, Regirock may shine in June 2022, so even if you already have a few in your collection, there may be another reason to fight for more. The odds aren't great so it may take a few tries, but use the counters above and it shouldn't be too difficult.
Best Regice Counters in June 2022
And now the Ice Legendary type for the first half of the month. The list of counters hasn't changed much since they last appeared in December, but keep reading for the entire Regice counter team.
Pokémon | fast attack | Charged Attack |
Reshiram | fire fang | Overheat |
metagross | Punch | Meteor Mash |
Competition durr | Speedometer | Dynamic Punch |
Chandelier / Many | fire spin | Overheat |
darmanitan | fire fang | Overheat |
Blaziken | Speedometer | Burn |
As expected, there are plenty of Fire-type counters in there. But what if you want to use Shadow or Mega Pokémon? Obviously, any of the above with the same moveset will do just fine. You can also try Shadow Machamp with Karate Chop and Dynamic Punch and/or Shadow Charizard with Fire Spin and Blast Burn.
And if you want to use a Mega evolution, we suggest Mega Charizard Y with Fire Spin and Blast Burn first. Once you defeat Regice, you might have a special surprise.
Can Regice be brilliant in June 2022
Yes, Shiny Regice is available in June 2022, so try to go through as many raids as you are willing to spend resources if you are a shiny collector. This might be the last chance you have for a while, so use those passes and revive all your fallen counters.
The best Registeel counters in June 2022
Finally, we come to the Regi trio powerhouse, if you're worried about Steel-types. Once again, you'll be using a lot of Fire to defeat him, as the top counters haven't changed much since the last time you formed a team. Here are the standard items and keep reading if you want more options.
Pokémon | fast attack | Charged Attack |
Reshiram | fire fang | Overheat |
Chandelier / Many | Fire Tower | Overheat |
Lucario | Speedometer | Aura Sphere |
Blaziken | Speedometer | Burn |
darmanitan | fire fang | Overheat |
Competition durr | Speedometer | Dynamic Punch |
Just like Regice, Mega Charizard Y is your best bet for an evolved Mega counter. There are also Shadow versions of the above, so if you have them with the correct moveset, be sure to use them. Along with this list, you can cast Shadow Entei with Fire Fang and Overheat, Shadow Machamp with Counter and Dynamic Punch, and Shadow Charizard again with Fire Spin and Blast Burn. But why use these counters against a Pokemon you've probably already beaten and caught?
Can Registeel be brilliant in June 2022
Shiny Registeel is available for the June 1-17, 2022 window. The alternate color scheme makes it a great collectible if you missed it last time. While you might not use it much in raids and PvP battles, it's still great for trading or just collecting.
And those are all the best Regirock, Regice, and Registeel raid counters in Pokémon GO for June 2022. We've also answered the question of whether Shiny Regirock, Shiny Regice, and Shiny Registeel are available for the month. Be sure to get them before they depart on June 17.
