Take on Mesprit with our one-stop shop raid guide.
Mesprit is returning to Pokémon GO raids for the first time in over a year, avaliable from May 12 until May 25.The Lake trio in Pokémon GO are all region specific, so Mesprit will be available in-person for Trainers in the EMEA region (or via remote raids for everyone else).
Mesprit is a pretty average Pokémon in Pokémon GO. It does have a nice shiny, but we can’t say it is a powerful raid attacker.
This Mesprit Pokémon GO raid guide will give you everything you need to win your raids.

Best Mesprit counters in Pokémon GO:
Mesprit is a Psychic-type Pokémon meaning it has a weakness to Bug, Dark and Ghost-type attacks.
Here are the best Mesprit counters in Pokémon GO:
Since we last saw Mesprit in Pokémon GO, there are lots of new Pokémon to use as counters. That includes the really powerfulDawn Wings Necrozma, which has the hard hitting Moongeist Beam Charged Attack. This Pokémon is stronger than all Mega Evolution options, and you aren’t limited to just one of these in your Raid team. If you have six Dawn Wings Necrozma, use them here!
Otherwise, strong counters also includeMega TyranitarorMega Absol. Mega Absol needs the Charged Attack Brutal Swing, which was avaliable during therecent Mega Absol Raid Day. In addition,Black Kyurem,Hoopa UnboundandBlacephalonhave all also been in Raids recently and are good counters to use here.
There are also some easily accessible budget options, including Hydregion and standard form Tyranitar.
