"Jynx counters for every charge move depending on weather"
#PokemonGO: TL;DR: Entei, Moltres and Tyranitar are the best, but several Fire/Steel/Rock/Ghost/Dark/Bug attackers are good, depending on weather and moveset.I have soloed a few Jynx and it was relatively hard, so I made this table and I found it very useful.So, even if Jynx is not a highly coveted legendary*, maybe this table will be helpful for someone else too.I'm not good at making infographics, so I'm leaving these results as a table.All calculations have been done with my Choose Your Attackers v12.0 spreadsheet.WeatherAvalanchePsyshockDraining KissPure DPSSnow (WB):Metagross BP/FCMetagross BP/FCEntei FS/OH1Moltres FS/OHEntei FS/OH1Tyranitar Bi/SE2Metagross BP/FCGengar any/SB6Aggron IT/SEAggron IT/SEMoltres FS/OHFlareon FS/OH3Ho-Oh SW/FBMewtwo PC/SB8Ho-Oh SW/FBEntei FS/OH1Moltres FS/OHHo-Oh SW/FBAggron IT/SEMetagross BP/FCTyranitar Bi/SE2Moltres FS/OHFlareon FS/OH3Blaziken FS/OHFlareon FS/OH3Entei FS/OH1Scizor any/IHScizor any/IHWindy (WB):Entei FS/OH1Tyranitar Bi/SE2Entei FS/OH1Moltres FS/OHMoltres FS/OHMewtwo any/SBMoltres FS/OHGengar any/SB6Tyranitar Bi/SE2Entei FS/OH1Flareon FS/OH3Flareon FS/OH3Mewtwo any/SBMoltres FS/OHHo-Oh SW/FBEntei FS/OH1Flareon FS/OH3Metagross BP/FCMewtwo any/SBRayquaza DT/ORMetagross BP/FCRayquaza DT/ORGengar any/SB6Mewtwo any/SBSalamence DT/DMMetagross BP/FCBlaziken FS/OHRainy:Entei FS/OH1Tyranitar Bi/SE2Entei FS/OH1Pinsir BB/XS4Scizor FC/XSScizor FC/XSMoltres FS/OHMoltres FS/OHMoltres FS/OHMewtwo PC/SB8Scizor FC/XSGengar any/SB6Tyranitar Bi/SE2Moltres FS/OHFlareon FS/OH3Scizor FC/XSFlareon FS/OH3Entei FS/OH1Ho-Oh SW/FBFlareon FS/OH3Kyogre WF/HPMetagross BP/FCPinsir BB/XS4Entei FS/OH1Pinsir BB/XS4Pinsir BB/XS4Mewtwo PC/SB8Blaziken FS/OHPartly Cloudy:Entei FS/OH1Tyranitar Bi/SE2Entei FS/OH1Moltres FS/OHTyranitar Bi/SE2Mewtwo PC/SB8Moltres FS/OHGengar any/SB6Moltres FS/OHMoltres FS/OHFlareon FS/OH3Tyranitar Bi/SE2Flareon FS/OH3Entei FS/OH1Ho-Oh SW/FBFlareon FS/OH3Mewtwo PC/SB8Metagross BP/FCTyranitar Bi/SE2Entei FS/OH1Metagross BP/FCGolem RT/SE5Gengar any/SB6Blaziken FS/OHHo-Oh SW/FBHoundoom any/FPGolem RT/SE5Golem RT/SE5Sunny/Clear:Entei FS/OH1Moltres FS/OHEntei FS/OH1Moltres FS/OHMoltres FS/OHEntei FS/OH1Moltres FS/OHFlareon FS/OH3Flareon FS/OH3Tyranitar Bi/SE2Flareon FS/OH3Entei FS/OH1Charizard FS/OHFlareon FS/OH3Charizard FS/OHBlaziken FS/OHBlaziken FS/OHHoundoom FF/FPBlaziken FS/OHCharizard FS/OHHo-Oh SW/FBCharizard FS/OHHo-Oh SW/FBArcanine FF/FB7Arcanine FF/FB7Mewtwo PC/SB8Arcanine FF/FB7Gengar any/SB6Fog:Tyranitar Bi/Cr2Tyranitar Bi/Cr2Gengar any/SB6Gengar any/SB6Mewtwo PC/SB8Mewtwo PC/SB8Entei FS/OH1Mewtwo PC/SB8Entei FS/OH1Houndoom Sn/FPMewtwo PC/SB8Banette SC/SBHoundoom Sn/FPAbsol Sn/DPMoltres FS/OHTyranitar Bi/Cr2Gengar any/SB6Entei FS/OH1Tyranitar Bi/Cr2Houndoom Sn/FPMoltres FS/OHMoltres FS/OHHo-Oh SW/FBAbsol Sn/DPFlareon FS/OH3Shiftry FA/FPHoundoom Sn/FPMoltres FS/OHCloudy:Entei FS/OH1Tyranitar Bi/SE2Entei FS/OH1Moltres FS/OHMoltres FS/OHMewtwo PC/SB8Moltres FS/OHGengar any/SB6Tyranitar Bi/SE2Moltres FS/OHFlareon FS/OH3Flareon FS/OH3Flareon FS/OH3Entei FS/OH1Ho-Oh SW/FBEntei FS/OH1Mewtwo PC/SB8Metagross BP/FCGengar any/SB6Blaziken FS/OHMetagross BP/FCHoundoom any/FPMewtwo PC/SB8Mewtwo PC/SB8Ho-Oh SW/FBMetagross BP/FCTyranitar Bi/SE2In italics the weather-boosted attackers.Fun fact: one of the best (non-Avalanche) Jynx counters in Windy weather is... Rayquaza.Glossary of moves abbreviations:Fire: FS = Fire Spin, FF = Fire Fang, OH = Overheat, FB = Fire Blast, Ft = FlamethrowerSteel: IT = Iron Tail, BP = Bullet Punch, SW = Steel Wing, FC = Flash Cannon, IH = Iron HeadRock: RT = Rock Throw, SE = Stone Edge, RB = Rock BlastDark: Bi = Bite, SP = Sucker Punch, Sn = Snarl, Cr = Crunch, FP = Foul Play, DP = Dark PulseGhost: SC = Shadow Claw, Hx = Hex, SB = Shadow BallBug: BB = Bug Bite, FC = Fury Cutter, XS = X-ScissorDragon: DT = Dragon Tail, OR = Outrage, DM = Draco MeteorOther: Co = Confusion, PC = Psycho Cut, WF = Waterfall, HP = Hydro PumpNotes:These rankings are based on my "Raid Score" metric, where DPS is weighed exponentially and tankiness only proportionally, because raids are mainly a fight against the clock (especially now that damage is not reset when rejoining).*Jynx may not be legendary, but it's the fastest counter to the current legendary, Rayquaza, and the current non-legendary DPS queen in Snow.1 Entei: FF/OH is not optimal but still good.2 Tyranitar: Bi/Cr is not optimal but acceptable (except in Fog, where Bi/Cr is slightly better than Bi/SE).3 Flareon: FS/Ft is not optimal but acceptable.4 Pinsir: legacy FC/XS is almost as good.5 Golem: RT/RB is not optimal but still good.6 Gengar: ranking referred to Hx/SB, but SP/SB is only slightly worse and legacy SC/SB is slightly better.7 Arcanine: legacy FF/Ft is even better.8 Mewtwo: Co/SB is not optimal (except in Windy) but still good.More in the Weather / Moveset counter series:Groudon countersKyogre countersRayquaza countersEDIT: Minor Text Fixes™. via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2HA19cP
