Here are the Pokemon GO Raid Bosses for July 2020 and the best counters to use against them.
We used guides from GamePress and User JaceMasood on The Silph Road Subreddit to research the best counters to use.
The Raid Bosses were found on The Silph Road.
The list will continue to be updated as the Raid Bosses change in the game.
