How to counter Bronzor in Pokemon Go Little Cup League

Several Pokemon are decent counters to Bronzor, including Pokemon with Fire-type, Ground-type, Ghost-type, and Dark-type damage moves. For specific Pokemon, the ones you may want to test out include:

  • Deino
  • Murkrow
  • Poochyene
  • Purrloin
  • Diglett (Alolan)
  • Meowth (Alolan)

Considering Bronzor’s four weaknesses, let’s take a look at the best counters. Dark-type Pokemon are likely your best bet to contend with Bronzor. Fire and Ghost-types may not be the best option due to the damage that Confusion can put on them if they are pure forms. A Fire and Dark-type, possibly something like Houndour, could be an excellent option to resist Confusion. 

In terms of Fire-types, nothing is going to win easily against Bronzor. You will mostly be looking at close games and ties versus Bronzor. Darumaka with Fire Fang and Flame Charge results in a tied battle. A surprising win is Pansear with Flame Charge and Crunch. 

For Ground-type Pokemon, Cubone pulls out a victory with Mud Slap and Bone Club. Aside from that, any other Pokemon such as Barboach can just burn the shields. 

Ghost-type Pokemon are going to have a rough time. One Pokemon that can hold its own is Drifloon with Icy Wind and Shadow Ball, but it is IV dependent. There are plenty of other counters to test out, but this should give you a good start.
