Incineroar’s Performance as a Raid Attacker in Pokémon GO
On March 16, Pokémon GO trainers will have the opportunity to evolve their Litten into Incineroar during the Litten Community Day event. This special event will allow Incineroar to learn the exclusive move, Blast Burn, when evolved between 2-10pm. In this quick analysis, we’ll take a look at Incineroar’s performance as a raid attacker. Incineroar, as a Dark type, possesses the move Darkest Lariat, which has proven to be quite strong. This places Incineroar at a level comparable to Yveltal, Weavile, and Guzzlord, making it a decent budget dark attacker and potentially even outperforming some fire attackers. However, when it comes to Incineroar as a Fire type, its performance as a raid attacker with Blast Burn is overshadowed by many other options. Overall, Incineroar with Blast Burn has the potential to be a budget fire-type attacker, but it falls short compared to other available options. As the Litten Community Day approaches, trainers can look forward to the opportunity to evolve their Litten into Incineroar and add this unique move to their collection.

The highly pathogenic strain of avian influenza H5N1, commonly known as bird flu, has been wreaking havoc among millions of birds and an unknown number of mammals over the past three years. The next pandemic may already be underway, primarily affecting a wide range of species rather than humans. The HPAI H5N1 virus has a mortality rate of approximately 40-50% and has spread to humans in Southeast Asia.
