Pokémon Go: Masskito – the 15 best counters against the ultra beast

Are you asking yourselves what the tapped Wattzapf (heehee) ultra beasts actually are? Well, we’ve already summarized that for you conveniently and in Our small but fine overview article tells you everything you need to know about these creatures of the Pokémon universe… who aren’t even from the Pokémon planet. Of course you can also read all known names of the ultra beasts there and from there you have access to all counter guides we have published so far.

Why is this interesting for you as a Pokémon Go player? Because the Ultra Beasts will gradually become available in Pokémon Go too! Anego made its Ultra debut at the digital Pokémon Go Fest 2022. It’s only a matter of time before all Trainers can battle the Ultra Beasts!

The Ultra Beast-02 Masskito is arguably the strongest mosquito ever seen in the Pokémon world. You almost don’t know whether you should be more afraid of a stab or an uppercut. However, Masskito likes to be impressed by equal opponents – no, a fly swatter is not enough.

Masskito as raid boss

Masskito is Bug and Fight type. This meant it has a very big weakness, which is Attackers with Flying-type attacks. And you should definitely exploit this weakness! Flying-type Pokémon may not be known for flexing their muscles, but they’re the strongest attackers you can have against Masskito. If it’s also windy, Masskito will surely give in quickly, because then the flying-type attacks will be even more powerful.

However, if your flying Pokémon don their plumage, you can also fall back on attackers of the Fire type (boosted when the weather is sunny or clear), Psychic (boosted when it’s windy), and Fairy (boosted when it’s overcast). Masskito boasts 54,689 CP, so you should already be a handful of trainers if you want to fight it and emerge victorious from the battle. Below are the best attackers to use against Masskito.
