Incarnate Enamorus has returned to Pokémon GO as a challenging 5-Star Raid boss. This Fairy/Flying-type Pokémon, initially appearing during the Valentine's Day event, boasts a high Attack stat, demanding a well-prepared team to overcome. However, its dual typing presents exploitable weaknesses.
This guide details how to defeat Incarnate Enamorus and clarifies its Shiny availability in Pokémon GO.
Incarnate Enamorus is a dual Fairy/Flying type, making it weak to Electric, Ice, Poison, Rock, and Steel-type attacks (160% damage). Conversely, it resists Dark and Grass-type moves (63% damage reduction), along with Bug, Dragon, Fighting, and Ground-type moves (39% damage reduction).
| Pokémon | Type | Weaknesses | Strong Against | Resistances |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Incarnate Enamorus | Fairy/Flying | Poison Steel Electric Ice Rock | Dragon Fighting Dark Grass Poison Bug Ghost Dark Ground Rock Water | Grass Fighting Bug Dragon Dark |
While five weaknesses seem advantageous, Enamorus's diverse moveset (including Dazzling Gleam, Fly, and Zen Headbutt) limits effective counter options. For example, its access to Grass Knot renders many Rock-type Pokémon ineffective.
Optimal counters include Steel, Electric, and Ice types utilizing same-type moves. Top choices are Raikou, Excadrill, and Articuno.
| Pokémon | Fast Move | Charged Move |
|---|---|---|
Raikou | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
Zapdos | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
Magnezone | Volt Switch | Wild Charge |
Excadrill | Metal Claw | Iron Head |
Xurkitree | Thunder Shock | Discharge |
Melmetal | Thunder Shock | Double Iron Bash |
Articuno | Frost Breath | Triple Axel |
Manectric (Mega or base form) | Thunder Fang | Wild Charge |
Electivire | Thunder Shock | Wild Charge |
Aerodactyl (Mega or base form) | Rock Throw | Rock Slide |
Consider secondary typings; for example, Metagross's Psychic typing makes it vulnerable to Astonish. Aerodactyl is an exception, its Flying type negating Grass Knot's effectiveness.
5-Star Raids require coordinated teams of at least four players with strong counters. Utilize the Pokémon listed above. Shadow Pokémon can provide an advantage, but their reduced Defense should be considered.

By utilizing these counters and strategies, Trainers can successfully defeat Incarnate Enamorus and enhance their Pokémon GO experience. Remember to check the Pokémon GO event schedule for upcoming activities.
