Pokémon Go: Best Moveset and Counters for Numel

Guide for the best counters against Numel during Battle Raids!

Numel is a dual-type Pokémon in Pokémon Go that stores boiling magma going up to 2000 degrees Fahrenheit within its body. If its body gets wet, the magma inside gets cool and hardens up too. When that occurs, it becomes heavier and its movements become more sluggish. Numel is an extremely dull-witted Pokémon which means it’s not hard at all to beat it. So in this Pokémon Go guide, we will talk about the best counters against Numel to finish the raid quickly and easily.
