Zacian is a Fairy-type Legendary Pokémon available in 5-star Raids.
It is trio-able for high-level Trainers with teams consisting of top Poison- and Steel-type counters such as Mega Gengar, Metagross, Mega Beedrill, and Excadrill. Lower-level Trainers, or Trainers lacking proper counters, should Raid in larger groups (4-20) to take out the Warrior Pokémon.
