Top Counter Pokemon against Druddigon
Based on Druddigon's weaknesses, players should choose Pokemon that deal mainly dragon, fairy, or ice damage. If players don't have any of the following counters, they should pick from their current arsenal based on type. Fairy is resistant to and strong against dragon-type, making it the best type to pick. Ice is a secondarily good option as they are strong against dragon types but not resistant or weak to them. Lastly, dragon types are actually the worst choice as they are strong against and weak to other dragon-type Pokemon.
Perfect Pokemon Counters
- Darmanitan (Galarian) - With attacks like Ice Fang and Avalanche.
- Kyurem - Either Black or White will work, with attacks like Dragon Tail, Blizzard, and Outrage.
