Time is running out to catch Therian Forme Thundurus in Pokemon Go. This new form of the Gen 5 Legendary is appearing in five-star Raid Battles until March 30, making this your last chance to catch one in Niantic's mobile game for the time being. If you're hoping to add one to your collection before it leaves Raids, we've rounded up some tips to help you beat and catch Therian Forme Thundurus below.
Therian Forme ThundurusAlthough Thundurus has previously appeared in Pokemon Go in its Incarnate Forme, this marks the first time the Legendary is available in its Therian Forme. Aside from its more animal-like appearance, Therian Forme Thundurus is stronger than Incarnate Forme. It still retains the same type weaknesses, however, so your strategy when battling it won't change very much.
Ground types are also good options to use when battling Thundurus. Although Ground attacks will only deal neutral damage to the Legendary because its Flying typing cancels out Electric's weakness, Ground Pokemon will still be helpful because they'll resist Thundurus's Electric attacks. Golem, Rhyperior, and Mamoswine are especially great choices because they're part-Ground and can still dish out super-effective damage with their Rock and Ice attacks, respectively.
