Pokemon Go Sierra May 2022 Counters and Lineup

Trainers, Sierra is one of the Team Go Rocket Leaders in Pokemon Go and many players want to know what Pokemon Sierra uses in May 2022, how to beat Sierra, and what are the best Pokemon counters to use against her lineup. Beating Sierra is no piece of cake and you must choose the right Pokemon team and moves against her.

The Team Go Rocket Leader Sierra has three different Pokemon lineups, Shadow Drowzee (can be shiny) as her first Pokemon, Shadow Sharpedo, Shadow Blaziken, or Shadow Lapras second, and Shadow Houndoom, Shadow Shiftry, or Shadow Nidoqueen third. As mentioned above, Sierra is the hardest of the three Team Go Rocket Leaders to beat, but using the right Pokemon counters and moves can help you out a lot. With that in mind, we’ve put together a guide to help you beat Sierra.

To find Team Go Rocket Leader Sierra you must use a Rocket Radar. This Rocket Radar revealed the locations of nearby Leader Hideouts, and to get one you must collect 6 Mysterious Components. So how to get the Mysterious Components? In order to get one, you must battle and defeat a Team Go Rocket Grunt. After defeating the Grunt, you’ll get one Mysterious Component.

Please have in mind that if you have a Rocket Radar in your Item Bag or your Item Bag is full, you won’t be able to collect Mysterious Components after defeating Team GO Rocket Grunts.
