Therian Forme Landorus can be quite a formidable enemy in Pokemon GO due to having a decent stat spread. Like several other Pokemon in the game, Therian Forme Landorus also benefits from weather boost, with its CP getting boosted in sunny and windy weather. Players do get some added bonuses for catching weather-boosted Pokemon, so it is not a good idea to shy away from such battles, although it can pose a significant challenge.
When it comes to beating Therian Forme Landorus in raids, things get a bit tricky because its type matchup makes it weak to only two categories, but resistant to a wide range of attacks. This narrows down the pool of Pokemon players can use. Ideally, when taking on Therian Forme Landorus, the best strategy is to not only rely on targeting its weaknesses but to also capitalize on Same-Type-Attack-Bonus (STAB). Here are the types Therian Forme Landorus is weak and resistant to.
